Uranium has 3 natural isotopes and 26 artificial isotopes and isomers..
The chemical symbol of uranium is U.
The fissionable isotope of uranium is uranium-235 (U-235). While natural uranium contains about 99.3% uranium-238 (U-238) and only about 0.7% U-235, it is the U-235 isotope that can sustain a nuclear chain reaction. U-235 is used in both nuclear reactors and atomic bombs due to its ability to undergo fission when struck by a neutron.
U-235
U-235 is the fissile isotope that produces the reactor power output in new fuel. During operation some of the U-238 is converted to plutonium which also contributes to the power of the reactor, an increasing amount as the U-235 is used up.
Examples for an uranium isotope:22892U, U-238, uranium-238.
The symbol for the nucleus of each isotope of uranium is U. Each isotope will have a different number of protons and neutrons, but they will all have the element symbol U as their nucleus.
Isotope U-238 has 92 electrons. This number corresponds to the atomic number of uranium, which is 92.
The chemical symbol of uranium is U.
This is the isotope of uranium - U-238.

143 neutrons
The symbol of the isotope uranium 235 is 23592U.
The daughter isotope of Pu-239 is U-235.
The decay chain for U-238 stops at lead because lead-206 is a stable isotope, meaning it does not undergo further radioactive decay. Once uranium-238 undergoes a series of alpha and beta decays, it eventually reaches a stable isotope of lead, which ends the decay chain.
which process & which isotope u mention 1. nuclear reaction U235 & Pu239
Very heavy Uranium Isotope. Could also be the designation for a German submarine.
