Making repeated separations of the various substances in the pitchblende, Marie and Pierre used the Curie electrometer to identify the most radioactive fractions. They thus discovered that two fractions, one containing mostly bismuth and the other containing mostly barium, were strongly radioactive.
<h3>What was surprising about pitchblende?</h3>
Since it was no longer appropriate to call them “uranic rays,” Marie proposed a new name: “radioactivity.”
Even more surprising, Marie next found that a uranium ore called pitchblende contained two powerfully radioactive new elements: polonium, which she named for her native Poland, and radium.
<h3>Why is radium more radioactive than uranium?</h3>
It is 2.7 million times more radioactive than the same molar amount of natural uranium (mostly uranium-238), due to its proportionally shorter half-life.

Density is an intrinsic property, so it is independent of the amount of substance present: one gold coin would have the same density as a solid gold boulder.
So if the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³, the density of a bar of gold and the pieces into which the bar is cut would all be 19.3 g/cm³.
Because society has shaped our mind on what we shall think about things
The answer would be "air, wood". Gases have the highest Kinetic energy and least Potential energy. Liquids have the 2nd highest Kinetic energy and 2nd least potential energy and solids have the least kinetic energy and highest potential energy.
