Yes, the government uses uranium. Uranium is mined, refined and then enriched to provide nuclear fuel for nuclear reactors. Depleted uranium, the uranium "left over" from enrichment, is used in munitions to defeat armor, and in some types of armor. On a related note, enriched uranium is in demand by some sovern states and religeous/political factions to make nuclear weapons, though the "modern" nuclear powers use plutonium as the fissionable element in their nuclear devices. The plutonium is made by "soaking" uranium in the neutron flux of an operating nuclear reactor for a time. This changes (transmutes) some of the uranium to plutonium, which is then recovered and processed.

Now liquid uranium has not applications.
The government and industry use uranium. Uranium is very important for its use as a nuclear fuel. Energy companies purchase it from the government or licensed suppliers. It also has military applications such as in kinetic energy munitions (as the bullet) and in uranium armours. (Its use for nuclear weapons has been displaced by plutonium, but plutonium is made in nuclear reactors from uranium.) Uranium and uranium compounds have also another applications in industry such as a coloring agent for glasses and ceramics, mordant for textiles, in Photography, bricks for protection against gamma radiation, ballast, catalysts, etc.
Scientists use uranium for many reasons. Uranium - powers nuclear power plants - makes electricity - is used in radioactive dating - is used in nuclear fission Applications of uranium: - nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors - explosive for nuclear weapons - material for armors and projectiles - catalyst - additive for glass and ceramics (to obtain beautiful green colors) - toner in photography - mordant for textiles - shielding material (depleted uranium) - ballast - and other minor applications
The principal changes are: - fabrication of nuclear weapons - creation of nuclear power reactors - use of depleted uranium in weapons
