What happens if an atom of uranium loses a proton?
Uranium minus a proton (hydrogen atom) is protactinium.? That is, if you could get it to do that - this is an unusual reaction.
How are uranium and plutonium alike?
Plutonium has the same composition as uranium, except for the fact that it contains one more neutron and one more proton. Actually Plutonium-239 has 2 more protons and 2 more neutrons than Uranium-235.
What particle of the atom is responsible for the nuclear reaction?
The protons! If a proton is removed from an atom it fission (usually from Uranium) and if one is gained it is fusion.
What was Rutherford and Soddy's theory?
Rutherford and Soddy's theory stated that uranium successively disintegrated to lead. Rutherford discover the proton. He also discovered that the atom is mostly space.
How many protons will uranium have after releasing a beta particle?
It depends on whether the beta decay sequence is beta- or beta+. In beta-, the atom will gain a proton, changing into neptunium. In beta+, the atom will lose a proton, changing into protactinium.
What happens if an atom of uranium loses a proton?
Uranium minus a proton (hydrogen atom) is protactinium.? That is, if you could get it to do that - this is an unusual reaction.
What is the proton for xenon?
A proton is a subatomic particle which is the same in whichever element it is found. A proton from a Xenon atom is no different to that from a Hydrogen atom or a Uranium atom.
Why is it would be difficult to inject the nucleus of uranium with a proton?
electrical repulsion
What is the size of protons in a uranium nucleus?
A proton has identical properties in all types of atoms; the mass of a proton is approx. 1 amu.
What is the proton number for Uranium-235?
92, the proton number is also called the atomic number if you need to look up something else
What do you get when you take one proton from uranium 234?
An atom with 91 protons is an isotope of protactinium.
When uranium 238 changes into protactinium 234 how many protons does it lose?
Uranium-234 become protactinium by emission of a beta particle. A proton is transformed in a neutron.
What element has 81 proton in the nuclei of its atoms?
A. Lead B. Platinum C. Thallium D. Uranium
How many protons does the nucleus have?
That varies depending on the element: e.g. hydrogen has 1 proton, uranium has 92 protons.
How are uranium and plutonium alike?
Plutonium has the same composition as uranium, except for the fact that it contains one more neutron and one more proton. Actually Plutonium-239 has 2 more protons and 2 more neutrons than Uranium-235.
