What are the similarities and differences between the isotopes uranium-235 and uranium-238?

Uranium-235 and uranium-238 are the isotopes of the same element - uranium, a natural radioactive chemical element; the atomic number is the same - 92. Also the electronic structure, the number of protons, etc. Differences: atomic mass, number of neutrons, U-235 is fissile with thermal neutrons but U-238 is only fertile, halflife, type of disintegration types and energy of emitted radiations, etc.

What is uranium 235 when added to natural uranium?

When uranium-235 is added to natural uranium, it increases the overall percentage of uranium-235 in the mixture. This can make the uranium more suitable for use in nuclear reactors or weapons, as uranium-235 is more fissile (more easily split by neutrons) than uranium-238.


Enriched uranium uranium 235 or uranium 238?

Enriched uranium is still usually mainly 238U, but it has a higher percentage of 235U than the natural abundance. Depleted uranium is exactly the opposite: it's got a LOWER than normal amount of 235U.

Does Uranium 238 and 235 release neutrons in nature as they do in a fission process?

Uranium-238 and Uranium-235 do not release neutrons spontaneously in nature in the same way they do during a fission process. Neutrons are typically required to initiate the fission process in nuclear reactions. In natural settings, radioactive decay processes such as alpha and beta decay occur in uranium isotopes, but not neutron release.
