    COAL VS. URANIUM

    DAILY NUKE

    A chunk of coal and chunk of natural (unenriched) uranium, both weighing the same (1 kg) and both mined and isolated straight out of the earth. If we could suck all the energy out of the coal, it would run a 100W light-bulb for about 4 days. With the uranium, we could run the bulb for about 180 years

    What is Neutron?

    The neutron is a subatomic hadron particle which has the symbol n or n0, no net electric charge and a mass slightly larger than that of a proton. With the exception of hydrogen, nuclei of atoms consist of protons and neutrons, which are therefore collectively referred to as nucleons.
