What must happen to uranium before it can be used as a fuel source?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kiruha [24]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Before it can be used in a reactor for electricity generation, however, it must undergo a series of processes to produce a useable fuel. For most of the world's reactors, the next step in making the fuel is to convert the uranium oxide into a gas, uranium hexafluoride (UF6), which enables it to be enriched.

How to find how many electrons are in an element
Murljashka [212]

Explanation:

1) Locate the atomic number in the upper left corner of the square. The atomic number will tell you the number of protons

2) In a neutral state, the element will contain the same number of protons as it will electrons.

--> Boron (B) has an atomic number of 5, so it has 5 protons.

--> Having 5 protons (+1 charge each) means to be balanced, it must have 5 electrons (-1 charge each)

However, what if it's not in a neutral state?

If it's not in a neutral state, it will look something like this:

Ca ^ 2+

<em>Btw, the "^" means that it will be written like it's an exponent. That confuses people sometimes.</em>

Anyways, the "2+" means it's an ion with a positive charge of 2. For us to have a positive charge, it means it's lost two electrons (cause electrons are negative, so taking them away means we are left with a more positive charge).

To get the number of remaining electrons, subtract the 2 from the atomic mass. In this case, that would be 20.

20 - 2 = 18 electrons

Another example:

N ^3-

Atomic Number: 7

7 + 3 = 10 electrons.

Why did I add here instead of subtracting? It's cause the 3- means we have added electrons, resulting in the ion having a negative charge. It's got more electrons than usual.

Hopefully this helps a bit.
