[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 19 points 2 months ago (2 children) Is H2O4U actually possible to synthesize? Is it stable? Would it be a liquid at any reasonable temperatures? permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 28 points 2 months ago (2 children) Tetraoxidane (H2O4) is very unstable by itself, and I doubt adding a uranium into the mix would stabilize it permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 22 points 2 months ago* (2 children) Hm... I'm guessing that adding Uranium to that would make it quickly oxidize, and instead of H2O4U, you'd get mostly U3O8 (the most stable Uranium oxide) and a bunch of H2O and Hydrogen gas. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Fluke@feddit.uk 14 points 2 months ago (1 child) And a lot of heat.

(In small amounts, of course.) It would have to be something that holds onto the Uranium atoms very tightly and also passes right through you without getting absorbed. Hmm... But the radiation aspect is always going to be a problem. No matter what other atoms it's bonded to, Uranium will still be emitting a bit of alpha radiation -- no big deal when it's outside you since the outer layers of skin block most of it, but when it's inside you, there's nothing to block that radiation from damaging the cells of your digestive tract. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] hactar42@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 months ago Read that in his voice permalink fedilink source parent
