What is available other than uranium?
For the nuclear energy: thorium and plutonium
Where does the fuel of nuclear energy usually come from?
Most uranium now comes from Australia, but there are many other sources. See www.world-nuclear.org and look for Uranium Mining as a subject.
Does uranium rely on any other energy sources?
The very large nucleus of the uranium atom is a kind of energy storage unit. The energy of that nucleus is the result of the nuclear synthesis reactions that take place in a supernova. In that sense, a supernova is the energy source of uranium.
What are the capitols of all the countries?
This information is readily available on other sources.
How much uranium can be produced in comparison to other energy sources?
The production of uranium in each year is extremely small compared with the production of coal, oil, methane; but the most important is the energy obtained per unity of mass.
Can uranium combine with other elements?
Uranium combine with the majority of other elements; also uranium has alloys with the majority of metals.
What are some possible test that you can do to identify the radiation emitted by the uranium salt?
There are multiple instrumentation types capable of detecting radiation. The Geiger Counter is one such device capable of detecting radiation emissions from uranium and other radioactive materials/sources.
What is uranium mass when it splits?
Splitted uranium is not uranium, but other two lighter elements.
What does an atomic bomb use for its expolsive power?
Of the two dropped on Japan, one was a Uranium bomb and the other a Plutonium bomb. Both Uranium and Plutonium are elements, and are radioactive. The radioactivity makes these elements suitable as sources of energy, for power generation or explosions.
How to find a Samsung battery?
There are a variety of sources for battery coupons. The Sunday papers may have a few available. Other alternative sources would be to look at virtual coupon sites and see what is available.
What are common combinatons with uranium with other elements?
uranyl nitrate, uranium dioxide, uranium octaoxide, uranium hexafluoride, uranyl acetate, uranium tetrachloride, uranium carbide, uranium nitride, uranium tetraiodide, uranium sulfide, ammonium diuranate, etc.
Why isn't uranium mixed with other types of minerals?
Uranium minerals can be mixed with other minerals.
