What is the work function of uranium?
The work function of uranium is 3,6-3,9 eV.
How many tons of uranium ore are needed to make one kilo of enriched uranium?
A Wikipedia article (see link below) gives the concentration of uranium in ore as 0.01 to 0.25 percent, which is a wide range. If we take 0.1 percent as typical, then 1 tonne (1000Kg) of ore would produce 1 Kg of uranium. This is natural uranium, which is normally enriched by about six times to produce suitable enriched uranium for fuel, so you can say that about 6 tonnes of ore would be needed to give 1 Kg of enriched uranium, but there is considerable variation of this from one source of ore to another
Why is uranium mining bad for the environment?
Uranium mining can have negative environmental impacts due to the release of radioactive materials, contamination of water sources, destruction of habitats, and production of radioactive waste. It can also cause health risks for both humans and wildlife living in the surrounding areas.
How does uranium affect people?
Uranium is a pollutant, toxic and radioactive. Human exposure (and also the exposure of all living beings) to uranium is dangerous without precautions. The effect of uranium depends on concentration, quantity, chemical and physical form, isotopes, etc.
What are 2 molecules that contain uranium?
Examples:Oxides: uranium dioxide, uranium trioxide, uranium octaoxideSalts: ammonium diuranate, uranyl nitrate, uranyl acetate, uranium hehxafluoride, uranium chlorideand many others because uranium is a reactive metal.
Is the uranium in obsidian harmful to humans?
yes, most uranium is considered toxic and radioactive
How is uranium an advantage for humans?
Uranium is the starting material in nuclear reactors, which then produce electricity.
Can humans be made of uranium?
Fortunately, it is impossible !
How do humans use uranium in the natural environment?
Uranium is a possible polluting agent of the natural environment.
Is uranium found in humans?
The normal human body contain uranium but only in traces.These traces of U are not dangerous.
What are the positive enriched uranium?
- the energy released from enriched uranium is higher compared to natural uranium- the amount of uranium needed for a reactor is lower- research reactors work only with enriched uranium- atomic bombs have highly enriched uranium or plutonium
What raw material is needed for nuclear power?
Uranium ore.
What was the element needed for the atomic bomb?
they used uranium and plutonium.
What is the size of uranium 235 needed for fission?
56 kilograms
Can uranium be found in humans?
Yes, but a very, very small quantity.
What resources were needed for the hiroshima bombing?
Mostly Uranium which is very expesensive.
Can uranium cause death?
Uranium is both radioactive and a toxic metal to humans. Exposure to uranium can disrupt normal function of most systems in the body. Uranium itself has not been shown to be a direct cause in any human deaths, but exposure to its ions has.
