What element is 2 million times more radioactive than Uranium?
radium
What element is 1 million times more radioactive than uranium?
Radium (Ra)
Name the element which is two million times more radioactive than uranium?
Radium (Ra)
What are the disadvantages of Uranium?
Uranium is radioactive, and contamination of water, air or the human system can be fatal or permanently mutate a person or living animal's body, therefore, it is advised not to use uranium and instead use some safer resource.
How is iridium more valuable than urainium?
Uranium is very common compared to silver (22-40 times more plentiful depending on source) and much more common than gold. Australia & Canada have the largest reserves of the element as well. Iridium in contrast is the rarest solid non-radioactive element in the Earth's crust. Now when comparing the abundance of elements in the universe, uranium is actually much rarer than iridium (which is more common than silver or gold).
What element is 2 million times more radioactive than Uranium?
radium
What element is 1 million times more radioactive than uranium?
Radium (Ra)
Name the element which is two million times more radioactive than uranium?
Radium (Ra)
How uranium is stored in nature as it radioactive element?
Uranium exist in nature as minerals and ores; more than 200 uranium minerals are known today.
Which element is more radioactive and explosive uranium or polonium?
Polonium is more toxic and has a specific radioactivity greater than uranium but cannot be used in nuclear weapons.
Is uranium clean?
Uranium is a radioactive element; uranium is also a toxic element. But the nuclear energy based on uranium is cleaner than the energy based on coal or oil.
What element is 2 million times radioactive than uranium?
radium
When and how polonium was discovered?
Studying residues of uranium ores Marie Curie found that these residues are more radioactive than uranium; she attributed this radioactivity to an unknown element. She isolated this element and named this element polonium.
What is more radioactive than pure uranium?
Many radioactive isotopes are more radioactive than the naturally occurring uranium isotopes:All fission product isotopes are more radioactive (e.g. iodine-131, strontium-90)Most radioactive isotopes in the uranium --> lead decay chain are more radioactive (e.g. radium, radon, polonium)Plutonium is more radioactiveTritium is more radioactiveCarbon-14 is more radioactiveArtificially produced uranium isotopes are more radioactive (e.g. uranium-233, uranium-236)etc.
Is uranium a example of a radioactive element?
All elements have radioactive isotopes. Add a couple of hundred neutrons, and any stable element becomes radioactive.Technetium, promethium, and anything heavier than bismuth (element 83) will have radioactive decay.radio active elements can be uranium,radium,thorium,polonium,actinium etc.usually all elements of atomic number higher than 82 show radioactivity.
Is depleted uranium 40 percent more radioactive than natural uranium?
Depleted uranium is approx. 60% less radioactive than an equivalent mass of natural uranium.
Why did Marie Curie discover polonium?
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.
