The uranium-235 decay series begins with the emission of an alpha particle If the daughter decays by beta emission what is the resulting nuclide?

Uranium-235 will not beta decay first. If you google "Chart of Nuclides" you can follow the entire decay chain yourself using each isotope's most likely decay type.


Where does uranium 235 come from?

Uranium 235 is a natural isotope of uranium (the concentration is approx. 0,7 %); uranium 235 is separated from the other uranium isotopes by different methods (centrifugation, gaseous diffusion;also on small scale by laser, mass spectrometric, ion exchange, etc.).


How do you express an element in Isotope Notation?

look here: http://chiralpublishing.com/Bishop_Isotope_Notation.htm If you are using mastering chemistry make sure you are using the correct insert. It should not look like a division problem (no line between the numbers).


How do scientist find the absolute age of a rock?

Radioisotopes are used by scientists to date rocks in a method called radiometric dating. The isotopes of an element are the atoms that have the same number of protons and electrons but different numbers of neutrons. When atoms of a radioactive isotope are included in the formation of a crystal, that crystal becomes the parent isotope. As the isotopes begin to decay, they become a daughter isotope. The convenient property of this phenomenon is that a certain parent isotope will ALWAYS decay to a certain daughter isotope. The rate of decay from parent to daughter isotope is called the half-life (time for half of the parent to become the daughter). Being familiar with and using isotopes such as Uranium-238, Uranium-235, and Carbon-14, scientists are able to calculate the age of a rock, fossil, etc. using the known half-life for each parent isotope.

What is the electron configuration using noble gas notation of uranium?

The electron configuration of uranium is (short): [Rn]5f36d17s2.


Why is it necessary to enrich the uranium before manufacturing the fuel pellets?

Natural uranium is only 0.72% fissile uranium-235 isotope. This is only fissionable when using heavy water as the moderator to slow the fission neutrons. With any other moderator you need 3% to 5% uranium-235 isotope. For unmoderated fast neutron reactors like breeders you need 20% to 95% uranium-235 isotope.

What is the difference between using uranium for power or bombs?

In power reactors the fuel is uranium enriched slightly to about 4 percent U235 (the fissile isotope), whereas for a bomb you need the U235 as high as possible, in the high 90's I believe.


What does uranium become when it decays?

If we use uranium-238 as our starter isotope, what happens is that a nuclear decay event happens (in this case an alpha decay) and the U-238 transforms into a daughter isotope thorium (Th-234). The half-life of this transition is 4.5 billion years. Thorium-234 then undergoes a decay. And the process continues until a stable isotope is created as the last daughter of a decay chain. Note that there will be different half lives for the transition events, and the modes of decay will vary depending on what daughter is now the parent in the next decay event. Use the link below to see all the steps. The chart will show the whole chain including the half-life of isotope undergoing decay, the decay mode, and the daughter. Follow along using the keys and the process will reveal itself.


What is U235?

2 different isotopes of uranium. isotope= element with same number of electrons, same number of protons, different numbers of neutrons. U235 has 143 neutrons and 92 protons U238 has 146 neurtons and 92 protons

What is fuel enrichment - nuclear?

Natural uranium contains approx 0.7 percent U235, the rest U238. The 235 is the useful fissile isotope. Some reactors using graphite or heavy water can use natural uranium, but light water reactors need to have the U235 proportion increased to about 4 percent. this is called enrichment.


Where would I find a polonium mine?

You cannot mine polonium as the longest lived isotope, polonium-209 has a halflife of only 100 years and most isotopes of polonium have halflives measured in seconds to minutes.Traces of polonium can be found in any uranium ore as it is a daughter of uranium decay.Usable amounts of polonium are manufactured using nuclear reactors.
