uranium is a radioactive substance which can cause mutations in cell while potassium is non-radioactive. in fact it is required in our body for transmission of nerve impulse and osmoregulation. ----------- Potassium-40 is also radioactive ! But uranium is also a toxic element and as a radioactive element is more dangerous that potassium (alpha particle emitter, gamma irradiation, radioactive descendents as radon).
Nope Uranium is a very widespread element in nature. All materials of construction, all foods, all waters and soils, etc. contain small amounts of uranium. Uranium concentration in bananas is so small that it is not of practical importance. Even human body contain a small quantity of uranium.
Uranium-233 is not bad ! It is an important nuclear fuel . And also can be used in nuclear weapons.But it is radioactive and toxic as all uranium isotopes.
Uranium is toxic, radioactive, can be used for weapons.
Potassium, Boron, Lead, Gold, Plutonium, Uranium, Francium
Uranium 238 (depleted uranium) uses: - fertil isotope in some types of nuclear reactors - shield against nuclear radiation - counterweight - material for armors and projectiles - catalyst - additive for glass and ceramics (to obtain beautiful green or yellow colors) - toner in photography - mordant for textiles - additive for the preparation of biological samples for electron microscopy - other minor uses Applications of potassium-40: - minerals dating by the potassium-argon method - radiometric analysis of samples containing potassium

No, potassium does not have more electrons than uranium. Potassium has 19 electrons, while uranium has 92 electrons. This is because the atomic number of an element determines the number of protons and electrons it has, and uranium has a higher atomic number than potassium.

Uranium is just like nuclear energy
yes, most uranium is considered toxic and radioactive
Uranium is the starting material in nuclear reactors, which then produce electricity.
Uranium-233 is not bad ! It is an important nuclear fuel . And also can be used in nuclear weapons.But it is radioactive and toxic as all uranium isotopes.
potassium, gold, titanium, uranium
Fortunately, it is impossible !
Uranium is a possible polluting agent of the natural environment.
Uranium is toxic, radioactive, can be used for weapons.
