  • Uranium (U): Atomic Number, Electron Configuration & Properties
    Here's the information about uranium:

    * Symbol: U

    * Number of electrons: 92

    Explanation:

    * The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons in its nucleus. This is because atoms are electrically neutral, meaning they have an equal number of positive and negative charges.

    * The atomic number of an element defines the number of protons in its nucleus. Uranium has an atomic number of 92.

    Therefore, a neutral uranium atom has 92 electrons.
