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 or yellow colors)
- toner in Photography
- mordant for textiles
- shielding material (depleted uranium)
- ballast
- and other minor applications

Examples for an uranium isotope:22892U, U-238, uranium-238.
Uranium is not a fossil fuel; uranium is used as nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors.
Uranium is not used for the radiations emitted.
Uranium is not used for medical purposes. It is primarily used in nuclear reactors for power generation and in military applications for its radioactive properties. However, uranium isotopes are sometimes used in radiation therapy for cancer treatment.
Uranium is the only naturally occurring element used for nuclear fission in commercial nuclear reactors. It is typically found in two isotopes, uranium-235 and uranium-238, with uranium-235 being the primary isotope used for nuclear fission reactions.
Only in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
Uranium is a chemical element with three natural isotopes (234, 235, 238). The natural uranium has cca. 0,72 % uranium-235; uranium with a concentration of uranium-235 under 0,72 % is called depleted uranium; uranium with a concentration of uranium -235 above 0,72 % is called enriched uranium. Uranium in nuclear power and research reactors is used as metal, aloys, uranium dioxide, uranium carbides, uranium silicides, etc.
No, the three known forms of uranium - uranium-238, uranium-235, and uranium-234 - are isotopes of uranium with different numbers of neutrons. They have distinct nuclear properties that make them useful in various applications.
Uranium is not used in medicine.
Three types of radiometric dating are carbon-14 dating, uranium-lead dating, and potassium-argon dating. These methods are used to determine the age of rocks and fossils by measuring the decay of radioactive isotopes into stable isotopes over time.
Examples for an uranium isotope:22892U, U-238, uranium-238.
To produce uranium
No. Uranium is generally used in solid form.
Uranium is not used in the petroleum industry.
- Enriched uranium is used as explosive in some nuclear weapons. Depleted uranium is used for: - armors - projectiles - ballast
Uranium is not a fossil fuel; uranium is used as nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors.
