In Uranium-238 and Uranium-234 does neither element have a charge?

Uranium-238 and uranium-234 are not "elements", but they are natural isotopes of the chemical element uranium. The atoms are neutral.


Are uranium 235 and uranium 238 said to be radioactive molecules since they have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons?

No, Uranium-235 and uranium-238 are radioactive, natural isotopes (not molecules, but atoms) of the one and the same element: uranium.Both with 92 protons and 235-92 = 143 neutrons in U-235 but 146 neutrons in U-238.


Uranium -235 and uranium -238 are different of uranium?

Uranium-235 and uranium-238 are isotopes of uranium, meaning they have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Uranium-235 is used in nuclear reactors and weapons due to its ability to sustain a nuclear chain reaction, while uranium-238 is more abundant in nature but less useful for these purposes.
