Nuclear energy uses Uranium as a fuel, which is scarce. Uranium is even rarer than the fossil fuels which we've been using for many hundred years. The supply of Uranium is expected to last only for the next 30 to 60 years(depending on the actual demand). Therefore nuclear energy is NOT a renewable resource
What else can I help you with?
Which element is the main fuel in nuclear power plants?
Uranium, typically enriched to ~3% Uranium-235.
Where on Earth would you find Astatine?
no one really knows how much but it's a really rare element in the earth
Is boron common or rare?

What is radioactive disintegration series?
A disintegration series is the pathway of a radioactively unstable element into a stable element. The pathway alters the atomic number of the element and converts the element into another element. A common one is the uranium disintegration series.
What three element symbols were named for planets?
None. Although Mercury, Uranium and Plutonium might seem to be named after planets they were not. They were named after ancient deities.
Is uranium a transition or representative element?

What is the abundance of polonium on earth?
Polonium is a rare radioactive element on Earth. It is not found in nature in large quantities and is mostly produced as a byproduct of uranium and thorium decay. The abundance of polonium in the Earth's crust is estimated to be about 0.1 parts per trillion.
Where does the element uranium occur in nature?
Uranium is around us: in rocks and minerals (more than 200 minerals contain uranium), in soils in all waters including the tap water, in the atmosphere, building materials, vegetation etc. Uranium is not a so rare chemical element.

Is uranium a nutrient?
No, Uranium is a rare-ish element whose radioactive isotope is often used in nuclear reactors. ingestion of radioactive elements can result in death
What are the minerals that neptunium is part of?

Is the element Uranium a lanthanoid series element?
Uranium is an actinoid series element.
Where do you find uranium in your environment?
Uranium exit in the environment, around us, in rocks and soils, in rivers and oceans, in vegetation, in building materials etc. and also in our bodies. Uranium is spread everywhere and is not so a rare element.
