All about Uranium!!
  • The symbol of our FANTABULOUS element is U.
  • Our Atomic Number is 92!! I know were awesome.
  • Our awesome research has helped us discover the
    atomic mass!! The answer is 238.029g.

3
Boring Facts
  • The boring number of protons is 92.
  • . The number of neutrons are 146.
  • . The umm interesting fact of how many electrons
    are in uranium are 92.
  • . Our atomic mass is 238.0289 amu.
  • . Well this is actually getting pretty cool!!!



4
Structure
  • The structure of Uranium looks like the shape
    below. This is because it is a solid crystal
    structure called orthorhombic.

Characteristic Properties
  • The boiling point is 3818 degrees C.
  • The melting point is 1132 degrees C.
  • The density is 18,900 kg/m3.
  • The proper unit for Uranium is kg\m3.

6 extra facts
  • Uranium was discovered in 1789 while
    experimenting with pitchblende.
  • It is a silver metalic element.
  • 70 more dense then lead.
  • is used in kinetic energy penetrators and armor
    plating
  • Uranium decays slowly.
  • Extinction can only be cause by fissile isotope.
