When uranium<span> comes in contact with oxygen in the air, it rusts, just like iron does, but </span>uranium<span> rust is black and not red. Like other heavy </span>atoms <span>such as iron, </span>uranium atoms<span> have more neutrons than they do protons. Not all </span>uranium atoms<span> have the </span>same<span> number of neutrons.</span>
Answer is 0.289nm.
Explanation: The wt % of Fe and wt % of V is given for a Fe-V alloy.
wt % of Fe in Fe-V alloy = 85%
wt % of V in Fe-V alloy = 15%
We need to calculate edge length of the unit cell having bcc structure.
Using density formula,

For calculating edge length,

For calculating
, we use the formula

Similarly for calculating
, we use the formula

From the periodic table, masses of the two elements can be written


Specific density of both the elements are

Putting
and
formula's in edge length formula, we get

By calculating, we get

Pretty much, if I were going to separate small solid particles, I could use like a piece of paper. I used some type of piece of paper when I was trying to separate some particles during science.
