Uranium-235 is fissionable with thermal neotrons, it is a fissile material.
Uranium-238 is fissionable with rapid neutrons, it is a fertile material.
Fission of some uranium, plutonium, neptunium isotopes release a formidable energy which can be used to obtain electrical/thermal energy.
Yes, gasoline is volatile because it can easily evaporate into the air at normal temperatures. This volatility is what makes gasoline highly flammable and able to ignite easily.
How does the rotating function work?
This question is similar to "How does linear motion function? With the exception of the planetary system, first it must be driven by power. When driven and no load applied to it, then its just an object in motion. In other words a motion without load or work whether it be rotation or linear motion does not serve a function.
Do you know if a certain form exists or an example of a Motion to Reopen a chapter 7 Bankruptcy?
The errors in the first answer are mostly clarified in the second, but consult an attorney familiar with the topic.
They answers also do not answer the question ;) and that was where to find a form - and the very simple method of obtaining the document from Pacer will always work for such a need.
After a web search gives you a case number and a reference to a Motion to Reopen Bankruptcy Case, log into Pacer (http://www.pacer.uscourts.gov) or the Electronic Case Filing server for the court referred to, search for the case and court, obtain the docket report, find the Motion to Reopen, and download that document and edit it.
AnswerIRS obligations do not get discharged as the result of bankruptcy. All other creditors have to write off their debts, but the IRS gets to threaten you for the rest of your life, and even go after your estate.
AnswerBankruptcy is a Federal Case, and the form would be the one used by the circuit in your area. Speaking to the Court Clerk should get you what they want to see.
Re-opening a closed case is not for the faint of heart or wallet. And, if it even can be done, some real cause for it better be able to be shown...the fact that you just promised the court (and everybody else) something, many times over, made agreements etc. (probably that even had references to taxes, etc) but apparently didn't think about taxes, simply may not fly.
Then, as above notes, do you really want to do so? Probably depends on the Chapter you filed and if/when you filed returns, when the IRS gave their notices and if there is a lien already: Most tax debts can't be wiped out in bankruptcy -- you'll continue to owe them at the end of a Chapter 7 case, or you'll have to repay them in full in your Chapter 13 plan.
If you need to discharge tax debts, Chapter 7 will probably be the better option -- but only if you qualify for Chapter 7 and your debts qualify for discharge.
You can discharge (wipe out) debts for federal income taxes in Chapter 7 bankruptcy only if all of the following conditions are true:
* The taxes are income taxes. Taxes other than income, such as payroll taxes or fraud penalties, can never be eliminated in bankruptcy. * You did not commit fraud or willful evasion. If you filed a fraudulent tax return or otherwise willfully attempted to evade paying taxes, such as using a false Social Security number on your tax return, bankruptcy can't help. * The debt is at least three years old. To eliminate a tax debt, the tax return must have been originally due at least three years before you filed for bankruptcy. * You filed a tax return. You must have filed a tax return for the debt you wish to discharge at least two years before filing for bankruptcy. * You pass the "240-day rule." The income tax debt must have been assessed by the IRS at least 240 days before you file your bankruptcy petition, or must not have been assessed yet. (This time limit may be extended if the IRS suspended collection activity because of an offer in compromise or a previous bankruptcy filing.)
The Effect of Federal Tax Liens
If your taxes qualify for discharge in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy case, your victory may be bittersweet. This is because prior recorded tax liens are not affected by your filing. A Chapter 7 bankruptcy will wipe out your personal obligation to pay the debt, and prevent the IRS from going after your bank account or wages, but any lien recorded before you file for bankruptcy remains. In effect, this means you'll have to pay off the lien in order to sell the property.
Yes, "Uranium" should be capitalized as it is a proper noun and the name of a chemical element.
What are some poems for uranium?
I am not able to provide direct quotes or full poems due to copyright restrictions. However, poems that may mention or reference uranium include "Uranium Poem" by Connie Voisine, "The Uranium Poem" by Leonard Cohen, and "Uranium" by Brian Turner. These poems explore themes related to power, destruction, and the impact of uranium on humans and the environment.
Uranium is primarily purchased by nuclear power plants, government entities, and commercial companies involved in uranium mining, enrichment, and fuel fabrication. These buyers include utility companies, the U.S. Department of Energy, and private companies engaged in the nuclear industry. Additionally, the United States imports uranium from countries such as Canada, Australia, and Kazakhstan.
What is the market cap for Uranium Energy Corp UEC?
As of July 2014, the market cap for Uranium Energy Corp. (UEC) is $144,830,556.80

Where can you find uranium in Saskatchewan?
High-grade uranium mined and processed there is shipped out of Saskatchewan to power nuclear reactors in other provinces and countries. Mines in some areas were closed in the 1980's but exploitation of large ore bodies later began at the Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan.
What is uranium the mineral used for?
Applications of uranium:
- nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors
1. Uranium is an alternative to fossil fuels, especially for countries without reserves of coal, petrol, methane.
2. Uranium don't contribute to global warming.
3. Uranium don't release carbon dioxide.
4. In the future uranium can be extracted from the sea water.
- explosive for nuclear weapons
- 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
- shielding material (depleted uranium)

- and other minor applications
Where in Canada is nickel and uranium found?
Nickel can be found in meteorites and in the air attached to small dust particles. It can also be found in mines. The most popular places to find nickel are Australia and Canada.
Nickel is not that uncommon and has been found in many places, notably: Alaska, Poland, China, Russia, Australia and Colombia.
Nuclear waste undergoes radioactive decay, which is the spontaneous change of unstable isotopes changing to become more stable isotopes, along with bits of energy being released.
All radioactive isotopes have half-lives, which is the amount of time for half the amount of the original isotope to undergo decay. It's a form of exponential decay since radioactive decay can be modeled by the formula A=A0ekt where
A=the current mass of particles still present after a given amount of time
t=time
and A0 is the original mass of particles present when t=0
What is the difference between a uranium bomb and a plutonium bomb?
The difference simply comes down to the fissile material (i.e. uranium or plutonium) used as fuel in the core (aka pit) of the bomb. There is also a third type that is less well known among the general public, the composite bomb which uses both uranium and plutonium together as fuel in the core (aka pit) of the bomb. In the composite bomb the uranium and plutonium could potentially be alloyed together, but are more likely (for metallurgical reasons) prepared as separately cast and machined nested shells that must be assembled to create the core (aka pit) of the bomb.
The secondary difference is the choice of rapid assembly mechanism used in the bomb to assemble a subcritical mass of fissile material into a supercritical mass of fissile material rapidly enough to avoid having stray neutrons initiate a chain reaction prematurely causing a fizzle. A fizzle may do no more than simply melt the bomb or may do as much as producing a yield of a few tons of TNT equivalent, but is unpredictable in effect and thus undesirable. There are several potential sources of stray neutrons ranging from cosmic rays to the materials of the bomb itself. If it were possible to obtain fissile materials that are isotopically pure (e.g. uranium-235, plutonium-239) the choice of rapid assembly mechanism would be a nonissue, but isotopic purity is simply an impossibility on the industrial scale that these materials must be produced. The issues with each fissile material are as follows:
- uranium - must be enriched from natural uranium and thus will always contain some uranium-238 which is not fissionable and captures the high speed neutrons needed to sustain the chain reaction. The usual form of weapons grade uranium used in US bombs is called oralloy and is 93.5% uranium-235 and 6.5% uranium-238. Neither of these isotopes has a significant probability of spontaneous fission and as the remaining uranium-238 actually poisons the chain reaction some, a uranium bomb can use either the gun or implosion rapid assembly mechanism with no risk of a fizzle happening.
- plutonium - must be produced in a reactor from uranium-238. Typical weapons grade plutonium as produced in reactors is about 93% plutonium-239, 6% plutonium-240, and 1% plutonium-241. Unfortunately the plutonium-240 isotope has a high enough probability of spontaneous fission that with this much of it in the fuel a bomb using the gun rapid assembly mechanism would certainly fizzle, leaving the implosion rapid assembly mechanism as the only viable choice for either a plutonium bomb or a composite bomb.
In summary the three types of atomic fission bombs differ as follows:
- uranium bomb - uranium fueled, may use either gun or implosion rapid assembly mechanism
- plutonium bomb - plutonium fueled, must use implosion rapid assembly mechanism
- composite bomb - uranium & plutonium fueled, must use implosion rapid assembly mechanism
In 1789 Klaproth discovered a new mineral; he make a confusion between the element and mineral and considering pitchblende the element named this uranium.
In 1842 Peligot showed that this mineral is an oxide and separated uranium as a chemical element, a metal.
Is Uranium a renewable resource?
No, uranium is a non-renewable resource. When we have used it all up, there is none left. A renewable resource is something like sunlight, which we can use to generate electricity, and even if we use it all today, it still comes back just as strong tomorrow.
Uranium is a nonrenewable resource.
The most common isotope of uranium is uranium-238 with 146 neutrons.
