Question

Californium element information properties and uses

Answer 1

Answer

Californium is a radioactive metal.

Uses

Californium is a very strong neutron emitter. It is used in portable metal detectors, for identifying gold and silver ores, to identify water and oil layers in oil wells and to detect metal fatigue and stress in aeroplanes.

Biological role

 Californium has no known biological role. It is toxic due to its radioactivity.

Natural abundance

  Californium did not exist in weighable amounts until ten years after its               discovery. It is prepared, in milligram amounts only, by the neutron bombardment of plutonium-239.
