The important characteristic of uranium for this scope is its great density -
19,1 g/cm3. Also some steels alloyed with uranium are harder.
For normal light-water recators, first to a refinement plant. For producing depleted uranium porducts, such as shells for tanks, to a production plant.
Depleted Uranium Is a War Crime was created in 2006.
Has had most of the uranium-235 (an isotope of uranium)) separated out of it.
rivaling that of depleted uranium
Type your answer here... Electron configuration of uranium: [Rn]5f36d17s2 Electrons per shell in uranium: 2,8,18,32,21,9,2

it used to, but doesn't anymore
Any gene; depleted uranium is uranium containing more than 99,8 % of the isotope uranium 238.
Casings for shells, to make them heavier and more penetrating
The external irradiation from depleted uranium is not significative.
Depleted uranium is man made but the isotope 238U is natural.
Depleted Uranium Is a War Crime was created in 2006.
Uranium has 92 electrons, which means it has 7 electron shells.
Depleted uranium is approx. 60% less radioactive than an equivalent mass of natural uranium.
You'll have to make your question more clear. Are you talking about depleted uranium munitions? Or are you claiming the US are using depleted uranium for something else?
Against uranium powders or liquid aerosols you need a mask with filter for powders. Bulk depleted uranium is practically not dangerous.
It could if you snorted yellowcake or uranium machining dust. Another way it might is if you had been in an area where depleted uranium antitank shells had been fired. But lung cancer is probably more likely for any of these cases than nasal cancer.
