All the elements with the atomic number under 92 has atomic weights smaller than uranium.
the atomic number of uranium is 92. the elements after that is thus called trans-uranium (meaning after uranium)
Transuranic elements
Diamond and Uranium
The half-life of actinium is smaller, the specific activity is greater; actinium is more dangerous than uranium !
More electrons, protons, neutrons and a greater atomic weight.
the atomic number of uranium is 92. the elements after that is thus called trans-uranium (meaning after uranium)
Uranium is not lighter but heavier than many of the other elements; the density of uranium is 19,05 g/cm3 and the atomic weight is 238,02891.
transuranic elements are all elements with atomic numbers greater than 92, uranium is 92 so transuranic is past uranium
Transuranic elements are the elements with an atomic number greater than 92.
Transuranic elements
Diamond and Uranium
Studying residues of uranium ores, Marie Curie and Pierre Curie found that these residues are more radioactive than uranium; they attributed this radioactivity to unknown elements. They isolated these elements and named these elements polonium and radium.
Polonium and radium are discovered in wastes from uranium minerals, after uranium separation. The important radioactivity of these residues (without uranium) warned the two about the possible existence of other radioactive elements.
Transuranic elements are the chemical elements with an atomic number greater than 92.
She discovered the elements Polonium, which was named after her homeland, and radium. Polonium is 4x more radioactive than uranium and radium is 10x more radioactive than uranium.
Elements that have greater atomic masses then uranium are created using nuclear fission.
Elements having more than 92 protons, the atomic number of uranium, are called transuranium elements.
