What affects does nuclear energy have on natural resources?
The natural resource of nuclear energy is uranium. Uranium is abundant everywhere on earth. However, the cost of its extraction is the limiting factor for the feasibility of any uranium resource. Among the countries with high uranium resources are Australia, Canada, Kazakhstan, Niger, Chad, and South Africa.
Are uranium pellets used in fuel rods that provide the energy for nuclear reactors?
Yes, many reactors use uranium as their nuclear fuel, but some use plutonium or a uranium-plutonium mix.
If you were Becquerel what are some possible tests that you can do to identify the radiations emitted by the uranium salt?
Becquerel in 1896 hadn't the possibility to identify the radiations emitted from uranium.
A radioactive element in nuclear power stations?
The metal most commonly used is enriched uranium, meaning that it has a higher percentage of uranium-235 than occurs in nature. Plutonium is also used in some reactors, in combination with uranium. And thorium can also be used, though research on its use has only just begun. Usually it is not the metal that is used in any case, but a compound of the metal. There is a link below.
What does Nuclear energy use?
Nuclear energy as applied to power plants uses uranium, which can be made to produce a chain reaction in which atoms of uranium are constantly splitting and releasing energy in the form of heat. The heat is then used to produce electricity through a steam turbine/generator.
