Not that anyone asked, but uranium enrichment is certainly a newsworthy topic where a little science might be helpful. Here's ...

The difference between uranium-238 and uranium-235 When we dig uranium out of the ground, 99.27% of it is uranium-238, which has 92 protons and 146 neutrons. Only 0.72% of it is uranium-235 with 92 ...

The difference between uranium-238 and uranium-235 When uranium is mined from the earth, almost all of it—about 99.27%—is a type called uranium-238, which has 92 protons and 146 neutrons.

The difference between uranium-238 and uranium-235 When we dig uranium out of the ground, 99.27 per cent of it is uranium-238, which has 92 protons and 146 neutrons.

Centrifuges exploit the fact that uranium-238 is about 1% heavier than uranium-235. They take uranium (in gas form) and at 50,000 to 70,000 rotations per minute, with the outer walls of the ...

Centrifuges exploit the fact that uranium-238 is about 1 per cent heavier than uranium-235. They take uranium (in gas form) and use rotors to spin it at 50,000 to 70,000 rotations per minute, with the ...

The real debate has never been about what to do with Iran’s nuclear program. It’s always been about what to do with the ...

When Israeli aircraft recently struck a uranium-enrichment complex in the nation, Iran could have been days away from achieving “breakout,” the ability to quickly turn “yellowcake” uranium ...

The editor of the Oxford his was worried about the low estate into which rowing had fallen in the University. Wrote he last week: "There is no eight of outstanding merit. As long as the number of ...

The two main types involved in nuclear weapons are Uranium-238 (U-238) and Uranium-235 (U-235). U-238 is the most commonly found form in nature, but it cannot be directly used to make weapons.
