There are many isotopes for uranium, the most abundant of them in nature are:
235U is a fissionable isotope and 238U is a fertile isotope; these isotopes are extremely important in the production of nuclear energy. Also uranium is used by the United States, United Kingdom and Russia to threaten with nuclear bombs the other countries, without nuclear weapons.
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.
All the isotopes of uranium are unstable.Natural isotopes of uranium are: 234, 235 and 238.
Yes.......most likely. I can't think of anything to do with Uranium, that isn't radioactive! -------- Uranium natural isotopes are not so radioactive compared with other isotopes; but all the isotopes of uranium are radioactive.
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-233 (obtained from thorium-232) are fissile isotopes and used as nuclear fuels. Uranium-238 is fissionable with fast neutrons but the important use is as fertile material (to obtain plutonium-239). Other uranium isotopes are without use.
235U is a fissionable isotope and 238U is a fertile isotope; these isotopes are extremely important in the production of nuclear energy. Also uranium is used by the United States, United Kingdom and Russia to threaten with nuclear bombs the other countries, without nuclear weapons.
Uranium has 3 natural isotopes (234, 235, 238) and 26 artificial isotopes.All the isotopes of uranium are radioactive.

The most important isotopes for nuclear reactors are: - fissile isotopes: U-233, U-235, Pu-239, Pu-241 - fertile isotopes: Th-232, U-238
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 has three natural isotopes and many artificial isotopes. Uranium 238 has 92 protons and electrons and also 146 neutrons.
Uranium hasn't stable isotopes.
Uranium has three natural isotopes: 234, 235 and 238; also uranium has ca. 25 artificial isotopes.
