What is Plutonium classification?
Platinum is a metallic, solid, radioactive chemical element; now it is considered a natural element. Plutonium is a member of the actinides group.
What does plutonium look like in its normal state?
Plutonium has a metallic appearance.
What metallic element is used in nuclear weapons?
Uranium or plutonium
Does plutonium usually form ionic covalent or polar covalent bonds?
As a metal plutonium has metallic bonds. Salts of Pu have ionic bonds.
What is the first actinide element?
ActinidesThis is a group of elements within the periodic table and are also known as the transuranics. The name refers to those elements with increasing atomic no. from actinium, which all have similar chemical properties, like the lanthanides. The first few members of the group are the naturally occurring elements actinium, thorium, proactinium and uranium. Beyond this elements have been made artificially by radioactive bombardment. These artificial elements are unstable, some have very short lifeimes and undergo spontaneous radioactive decay.

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.
What does plutonium look like in its normal state?

What does plutonium look like in its natural state?
A fresh surface of plutonium is silvery, metallic.
Is barium a metallic element highly radioactive and chemically?

How common is americium?
Yes, Americium is a synthetic element that has the symbol Am and atomic number 95.As radioactive metallic element, americium is an actinide that was obtained in 1944 by Glenn T. Seaborg who was bombarding plutonium with neutrons. (And, of course: Glenn was 'man')
