Plutonium is a radioactive metal with Atomic Number 94. Plutonium is considered a man-made element, although scientists have found trace amounts of naturally occurring plutonium produced under highly unusual geologic circumstances. Plutonium was identified by nuclear chemist Glenn T. Seaborg and his colleagues Joseph W. Kennedy, Edwin M. McMillan, and Arthur C. Wahl, in 1941 at the University of California - Berkeley. However, wartime secrecy prevented them from announcing the discovery until 1948. Plutonium is created from uranium in nuclear reactors.
What else can I help you with?
How do you make plutonium in Doodle God?
in doodle god episode 2 you can make plutonium by mixing metal and radiation and to make a nuclear bomb you mix plutonium with weapon
What radiation is released from plutonium 238?
Plutonium-238 is an alpha emitter.
What are the three types of radiation emitted from plutonium?
Isotopes of plutonium emit different types of radiation. For the most common isotope, plutonium-239: alpha particles and neutrons from spontaneous fission.
What element gave off radiation on the fat man on Nagasaki?
The "Fat Man" was made from plutonium which emitted gamma rays.
When was plutonium made?
Plutonium was prepared for the first time at Berkeley Radiation Laboratory (14 December 1940) by Glenn T. Seaborg, Edwin Mc. Millan, Joseph W. Kennedy, Arthur Wahl.
How long does the radiation from plutonium 131 last?
Not plutonium, but iodine-131 !!The half life of 131I is 8,0197 days.
Where us plutonium obtained from?
Plutonium is not obtained it must be made.
What are the elements that giveoff invisible radiation?
Uranium, Polonium, Radium, Plutonium, etc
What can plutonium do to harm you?
Plutonium is a highly radioactive metal that can emit harmful radiation that damages cells and organs, leading to a higher risk of cancer. Ingesting or inhaling even small amounts of plutonium can be extremely dangerous to human health. Long-term exposure to plutonium can also cause damage to the liver, bones, and kidneys.
Where can you buy artificial or man made plutonium?
We cannot buy plutonium; the transfer of plutonium is strictly controlled.
What 3 sources give off radiation?
The sun (it radiates heat), plutonium, and radium.
Did Chernobyl fallout have plutonium?
The Chernobyl fallout primarily consisted of radioactive isotopes like iodine-131, cesium-137, and strontium-90, rather than plutonium. Plutonium was not a significant component of the released radiation.
