How many neutrons are in the isotope uranium-238?
Uranium, atomic number 92, has several isotopes, and 238U is just one of them. Remember that a nucleon is one of the particles that make up the nucleus of an atom, and that means a proton or a neutron. In the case of this isotope of uranium, it has the 92 protons we'd expect for uranium, and it has 146 neutrons in its nucleus along with those protons. That's 238 necleons in the nucleus if 238U. Wikipedia has more information on uranium and on the nucleon, and links are provided.
How does the mass per nucleon in uranium compare with the mass per nucleon in the fission fragments or uranium?
This is not something I really know anything about, but I do know that energy is liberated in the process, so you could expect it to be less in the fission fragments. It also depends on the nucleus. Proton and neutron masses differ somewhat, so it depends on what the ratio of protons and neutrons is as well.
Would you expect neodymium and uranium to have similar properties?
No, neodymium and uranium have different properties due to their different atomic structures and positions on the periodic table. Neodymium is a rare-earth metal with magnetic properties, while uranium is a radioactive heavy metal with nuclear properties.
What types of atoms would you expect to find in the element sodium?
you only find 1 type of atom in an element
Where would to expect to find an element with the greatest electronegativity?
upper right hand corner
What type of element did Fermi expect to find when uranium absorbed a neutron and then ejected a beta particle?
Fermi expected to find elements that were one atomic number higher in the periodic table when uranium absorbed a neutron and then ejected a beta particle. This process, known as beta decay, results in the conversion of a neutron into a proton within the nucleus, leading to the creation of a new element.
Would you expect neodymium and uranium to similar properties?
Uranium and neodymium are very different chemical elements.
How may protons would you expect to find in an atom of uranium'?
92 protons.

Which element is found in most of the compounds in your body expect for water?
This element is carbon.
Where would you expect to find a pulsar?
A pulsar is a rapidly-spinning neutron star, the remains of a supernova explosion.
