Briefly explain why it is necessary to be careful when disposing of the filter paper salt bridges. Explain why the mining of uranium often pollutes the local environment. What makes the super acid system easily recyclable? Give two reasons why you should never return unused c...
Why is uranium-235 used instead of uranium-238 in nuclear reactors? Why do scientists analyze radioactive decay? How do scientists use radioactive isotopes? Why are gamma rays more dangerous than radio waves? How does ionizing radiation affect molecules?
an experimental research drug that might prolong your life. I have had ALS I believe since 2017, and the only thing that works is Riluzole. I to believe that it’s neurotoxins that caused my ALS as I worked in areas where I was exposed to Uranium in the late 70’s and ea...
But uranium doesn’t occur free in nature (often it’s found as “uraninite“, also known as “pitchblende”, UO2but with other minerals), andochre, according toWikipedia, is “is a natural clay earth pigment, a mixture of ferric oxide and varying amounts of clay and sand.” (One o...
The "game-changer" in developing the technology today is a new form of uranium, which is not considered a weapons-grade material. That opens the door for commercial space companies to work on spin-offs after the test mission, said Pam Melroy, NASA's deputy administrator. But this low-enr...
not automatically mean it is harmful. Toxicology 101 is "the dose makes the poison". Everything is toxic in the right amount, even water. We should not ask whether a chemical causes cancer or acts as an endocrine disruptor, but whether it does so at the levels to which we are exposed....
According to Young, eating clay might coat the inside of the gut, in much the same way a mud mask coats the face. But why would somebody need an intestine mud mask? The answer is, protection from pathogens and harmful chemicals. Most toxins enter your body in the things you eat. You ...
When you start looking at things on an atomic or quantum scale, it becomes far more difficult to be precise in relation to a single atom. When looking at a single atom of uranium-235, it is impossible to know when or if it will undergo radioactive decay and become a single atom of ...
told the UN: "By next spring, at most by next summer, at current enrichment rates, they will have finished the medium enrichment and move[d] on to the final stage. From there, it's only a few months, possibly a few weeks before they get enough enriched uranium for the first bomb."...
If Iran talked this way about any other country it would become a pariah of the world, condemned, boycotted and sanctioned. But because they want to annihilate only the Jewish state, both the US and EU are more than eager to talk to them about uranium enrichment, to trade with them, an...
