Don't you be lying up in this thread! Uranium is very boring looking. Just another grey metal.

well yes but also uranium dissolved in glass is fluorescent

and uranium salts are bright yellow

You can get loads of pretty uranium colors in solution. I love me some chemistry, where the answer to the question "what color is it?" is preceded by "well it depends on the oxidation state..."

The answer to the question is preceded by the phrase. Yeah, it was tricky grammar but I didn't feel like trying to come up with a more clear phrasing.

Anyway, as in "Well, that depends on the oxidation state. Aqueous +2 would give you..."

i mean technically, if you refine uranium into plutonium, and then isolate plutonium 238. It does glow.

[-] bi_tux@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

but it glows in fallout );
