What is the molar mass of uranium?
238.02891 u
Uranium/Atomic mass
(For more information, see Section 1.6 ) Similarly, the molar mass of uranium is 238.03 g/mol, and the molar mass of iodine is 126.90 g/mol.
How do you find the mass of uranium 235?
Add the masses of the initial neutron and the U-235 in atomic mass units: m(n) = 1.008665 amu and m(U-235) = 235.04395 amu; m(n) + m(U-235) = 236.052615 amu.
What is the protons of uranium 235?

How is an atom of uranium 235 similar to an atom of uranium-238?
Uranium-235 and U-238 are chemically identical, but differ in their physical properties, notably their mass. The U-238 nucleus also has 92 protons but has 146 neutrons – three more than U-235 – and therefore has a mass of 238 units.
What is the flammability of uranium?
FIRE HAZARDS * Uranium powder or dust IGNITES SPONTANEOUSLY IN AIR, or when exposed to HEAT, FLAME, or MOIST AIR. * If pyrophoric Uranium metal is involved in a fire, use graphite, soda ash, powdered sodium chloride or dry powder to extinguish.

How do you calculate binding energy of U-235?
Calculate the binding energy of uranium-235 (92U235), if its atomic mass is 235.043943 a.m.u. (92) (1.007825 a.m.u.) + (143) (1.008665 a.m.u.) = 236.958995 a.m.u. The binding energy per nucleon is therefore 1782.9/235 = 7.59 MeV/nucleon.
When the nucleus of a uranium-235 atom is divided into two smaller nuclei mass is converted into energy where does this energy originate?
The Chain Reaction When a large, fissile atomic nucleus such as uranium-235 or plutonium-239 absorbs a neutron, it may undergo nuclear fission. The nucleus splits into two or more lighter nuclei, releasing kinetic energy, gamma radiation, and free neutrons.
How do you find the mass of uranium-235?
What is the atomic mass of uranium 235?
Uranium-235 is a radioactive isotope of uranium. Uranium-235 has 143 neutrons, 92 protons, and an isotope mass of 235.0439299. Uranium-235 has 235Pa, 235Np, and 239Pu as its parent isotopes. As it decays, it produces 231Th.
What is the density of uranium 235?
Calculate the atomic density of uranium-235 in atoms/cm3 in (a) natural uranium (0.72\% atomic fraction of U-235) and (b) UO2 made of 3\% enriched uranium (3\% weight fraction of U-235). Density of enriched UO2 is 11.0 g/cm3.
How do you calculate mole?
You calculate the number of moles by dividing the mass of substance by the substance’s atomic or molecular weight. You then find the mole fraction by dividing the moles of one substance in a mixture by the total number of moles of all substances in the mixture.
What is the atomic number for uranium 235?
Uranium is a radioactive element of the actinide series of metals. It has an atomic symbol U, atomic number 92, and atomic weight 238.03. U-235 is used as the fissionable fuel in nuclear weapons and as fuel in nuclear power reactors.
