Uranium was discovered by Martin Heinrich Klaproth, a German chemist, in the mineral pitchblende (a mix of uranium oxides) in 1789. Klaproth confused the oxide with the metal.
In 1841 the French chemist Peligot isolated uranium as a pure metal element.
Henry Becquerel (also a Frenchman) discovered the natural radioactivity of uranium in 1896.
he discovered the radioactive element Uranium......
Yes, uranium is a radioactive element.
Yes, uranium is a natural but radioactive element.
Uranium is unstable, radioactive element.
Uranium is toxic and radioactive; leakages of uranium from mines and plants are dangerous.
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.
Uranium ia a radioactive and toxic element.
Radioactivity is discovered on uranium.
Probably uranium is the best known radioactive element.
Uranium is an example of an actinde; also uranium is a solid metal, radioactive, a natural chemical element.
Studying residues of uranium ores Marie Curie found that these residues are more radioactive than uranium; she attributed this radioactivity to a new element. She isolated this element and named polonium.
Uranium is a natural chemical element, situated in the actinides group; uranium is a solid metal, radioactive.
