What else can I help you with?
Is splitting uranium in a power plant a physical nuclear or chemical change?
It is a nuclear change because there is a change in the nuclear structure of Uranium.
Can uranium change form?
Yes, uranium can be mechanically machined or melted.
If uranium decays is it a chemical change?
No. It is a nuclear change, as the identity of the element changes.
How do you change uranium into a liquid?
By heating uranium at a temperature above the melting point (1132,2 0C), in an argon atmosphere.
When uranium 238 is bombarded with a neutron it can change into what?
The nuclear reaction is: 23892U + n-------23992U-------23993Np + e--------23994Pu + e
Is splitting Uranium in a power plant a nuclear change?
Yes
What particle is given off during the change from protactinium to uranium?
Protactinium-233 is transformed in uranium-233 emitting beta radiation.
How will uranium be used in the future?
Any change the same applications as today.
When does uranium change state?
Uranium changes state as any other material does. We know uranium is a metal, and it can be heated and melted, or heated even more and vaporized. It is the same process that might be used on iron or aluminum.
How many protons in uranium-235 atomic number 92 after undergoes fission?
After undergoing fission, the number of protons in the uranium-235 nucleus will remain the same. Uranium-235 has 92 protons, and fission does not change the number of protons in the nucleus.
What are common compounds in which uranium is found?
uranyl nitrate, uranium chloride, uranium tetrafluoride, uranium hexafluoride, uranium dioxide, uranium octaoxide, uranyl acetate, uranyl sulfate, uranyl oxalate, uranium carbide, uranium nitride, uranium sulfide, uranium sulfate, uranium selenide, etc.
How does thorium change into uranium?
The nuclear reaction is:Th-232(n,gamma)U-233
