Difference between Decay chain and Uranium-235

Decay chain vs. Uranium-235

In nuclear science, the decay chain refers to a series of radioactive decays of different radioactive decay products as a sequential series of transformations. Uranium-235 (235U) is an isotope of uranium making up about 0.72% of natural uranium.

Similarities between Decay chain and Uranium-235

Decay chain and Uranium-235 have 13 things in common (in Unionpedia): Half-life, Isotopes of neptunium, Isotopes of protactinium, Isotopes of thorium, Isotopes of uranium, Nuclear fission product, Plutonium-239, Polonium, Primordial nuclide, Radioactive decay, Uranium, Uranium-236, Uranium-238.

Half-life

Half-life (symbol t1⁄2) is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half its initial value.

Isotopes of neptunium

Neptunium (93Np) is usually considered an artificial element, although trace quantities are found in nature, so thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given.

Isotopes of protactinium

Protactinium (91Pa) has no stable isotopes.

Isotopes of thorium

Although thorium (90Th) has 6 naturally occurring isotopes, none of these isotopes are stable; however, one isotope, 232Th, is relatively stable, with a half-life of 1.405×1010 years, considerably longer than the age of the Earth, and even slightly longer than the generally accepted age of the universe.

Isotopes of uranium

Uranium (92U) is a naturally occurring radioactive element that has no stable isotopes but two primordial isotopes (uranium-238 and uranium-235) that have long half-life and are found in appreciable quantity in the Earth's crust, along with the decay product uranium-234.

Primordial nuclide

In geochemistry, geophysics and geonuclear physics, primordial nuclides, also known as primordial isotopes, are nuclides found on Earth that have existed in their current form since before Earth was formed.

Radioactive decay

Radioactive decay (also known as nuclear decay or radioactivity) is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy (in terms of mass in its rest frame) by emitting radiation, such as an alpha particle, beta particle with neutrino or only a neutrino in the case of electron capture, gamma ray, or electron in the case of internal conversion.
