The uranium nucleus has 92 protons, 92 electrons an a different number of neutrons, specific for each isotope.
Uranium contain (as all the other elements) protons, neutrons and electrons.
For example the isotope 238U contain 92 protons, 92 electrons and 146 neutrons.
Uranium contain 92 protons and electrons. The number of neutrons is variable depending on the isotope.
Number of neutrons = Mass number of an isotope - Atomic number
Electron dot model of uranium is:
.
:U:
.
Crystalline structure of uranium: orthorombic.
Uranium has an orthorombic crystalline structure.
As a metal uranium can be processed in any shape.
Electronic structure: 5f3 6d1 7s2
Iron is in the isometric crystal system.
It is true that a uranium nucleus splits in the nuclear fission of uranium.
Nuclear energy
if the fission was of uranium, then yes. but many transuranic elements (e.g. plutonium, americium) also fission.
Yes
uranium can spontaniously give off energy also known as radioactivity
no
It is true that a uranium nucleus splits in the nuclear fission of uranium.
Nuclear energy
From heat released when nuclei of uranium 235 undergo fission
The fission of uranium-235 nuclei
By the fission of uranium nuclei, which releases energy
if the fission was of uranium, then yes. but many transuranic elements (e.g. plutonium, americium) also fission.
The nucleus (nuclei) of uranium-235 or plutonium-239
In fission reactors, which are the only ones we have at present for useful power, energy is released by the fission of the nuclei of the nuclear fuel, usually uranium-235, but sometimes plutonium-239.
A. Lead B. Platinum C. Thallium D. Uranium
Yes
the kind of energy produced when billions of atomic nuclei from uranium are split in a fission reacion
