Is xenon man made or is it found in nature?
We can make xenon (and we do in nuclear reactors - but not on purpose). But this inert or noble gas is found in the atmosphere in very small quantities (trace amounts). A link can be found below.
What is an element with 95 protons?
That would be Americium (Am). No, I am not making this up. It is an element that cannot be found in nature due to its nuclear instability, and can only be created synthetically.
Is Neptunium found in nature or manmade?
Neptunium is an artificial chemical element. It is found in burned nuclear fuels and in very low concentration in soils as a product of nuclear weapons tests.But natural neptunium exist in infinitesimal amounts in uranium ores.
Which story element is most often found in dystopian fiction?
Government oppression is the other answer
By whom was the element found?
Which element do you mean?
Where is curium found on earth?
As a natural element curium exist in infinitesimal amounts in uranium ores.Artificial curium is from nuclear wastes, nuclear reactors burned fuels, nuclear weapons tests.
Form of matter found in lighting bolts nuclear reactors and stars?
form of matter found in lightning bolts, nuclear reactors, and stars?
What can be found on the moon that can be used for nuclear reactors?
There may be Radium, Thorium, Uranium or even Plutonium which can be used in nuclear reactors.
Where can nobelium be currently found?
nobelium is a radioactive element produced artificially from curium. Curium is a silvery white metallic radioactive element artificially produced from plutonium. Plutonium is a toxic radioactive metallic element used in nuclear reactors and weapons.
Where in the world can you -235 be found?
in nuclear reactors around the planet
What is the Form of matter found in lighting bolts nuclear reactors and stars?
Lightning bolts are discharges of electricity. Nuclear reactors contain mainly uranium. Stars contain light elements undergoing nuclear fusion. I don't see any common form of matter.Actually, plasma is found in all of them.
Why is plutonium found in nuclear reactors?
Plutonium is a by product of nuclear reactions of uranium in a nuclear reactor. An example of reaction is: 23892U + n-------23992U-------23993Np + e--------23994Pu + e
How is lithium found?
lithium can be found in medicine,batteries,rocks and soil,hot springs,nuclear reactors,and last but not least air conditioners
Where was neptunium found?
Neptunium is an artificial chemical element. Neptunium can be found in the nature only in ultratraces resulting from nuclear weapons experiments, radioactive wastes from nuclear reactors or from other experiments. Neptunium is found also in extremely low concentrations in uranium ores.
How it curium found?
- in laboratory, following the nuclear reaction: 239Pu + 4He → 242Cm + 1n - curium isotopes are also obtained in nuclear power reactors
Where is nuclear energy source found?
1. Nuclear energy is the result of nuclear fission of fissile nuclei as uranium-235, uranium-233, plutonium-239, etc. 2. Industrial nuclear energy has as source nuclear reactors.
Is plutonium easy to find?
In the nature uranium is found associated with uranium ores but in extremely ultratraces. Plutonium is obtained in industrial quantities, by nuclear reactions, in nuclear reactors.
