What elements of formed when neptunium disintegrates?

When neptunium disintegrates, it typically forms elements such as plutonium, americium, and curium through a process called radioactive decay. These elements are sequentially produced as neptunium undergoes nuclear reactions, leading to the creation of heavier elements.


Does ytterbium form when neptunium disintegrates?

It is possible. Neptunium can decay by spontaneous fission, and ytterbium is a possible daughter, although vanadium would have to be the co-daughter. (93NP --> 70Yb + 23V) It seems unlikely, however, as the split would more likely be closer to centerline mass.


What are elements that are made in laboratory?

Manmade elements. These have traditionally been considered to be: Technetium, Promethium, Neptunium, and all elements beyond Neptunium. However trace levels of several of these have since then been detected naturally.


How do you use the periodic table to find what forms when neptunium disintegrates?

After an alpha decay the atomic number of the new element formed is less with 4.


What form does neptunium likes to take on naturally?

Neptunium is a solid metal.


What are the elements that make neptunium?

Neptunium itself is an element, the simplest form of matter.


Why are technetium neptunium and promethium considered natural elements even though they are not found on earth?

In the last years technetium, prometium, neptunium and plutonium was found in the nature but in extremely low concentrations.Because they are found in the universe. They have been observed in the spectrum of certain stars.


Can you mixed Neptunium with elements?

Yes, neptunium can be mixed with other elements to form compounds and alloys. Neptunium is a radioactive element, and its compounds are primarily produced for research purposes. Various elements such as oxygen, fluorine, and hydrogen can combine with neptunium to form different compounds.


When neptunium is combined with another element what new compound can it make?

Neptunium is a metal, and therefore it can in theory form all the usual kinds of compounds that metals form; it could combine with oxygen and form neptunium oxide. However, neptunium is a radioactive element with a very short half-life, therefore it does not stick around long enough to engage in chemical reactions, or even if it did, the resulting compound would also exist only for a very brief period of time.


Which element can neptunium combine to make an explosion?

Any element; neptunium can form himself a critical mass.


What does the promethium look like?

Promethium is a radioactive, silvery metallic element that is rare in its pure form. It may appear similar to other metallic elements but is distinguished by its radioactivity and glowing properties. In practical applications, promethium is usually in the form of a phosphor or a powder used in luminous paint or in radioactive power sources.


Where does the plutonium come from?

Uranium 238 is bombarded by neutrons, and forms Neptunium 238. Neptunium decays to form Plutonium 238.
