| 11. | Curium ions are hard Lewis acids and thus form most stable complexes with hard bases.
|
| 12. | Atmospheric curium compounds are poorly soluble in common solvents and mostly adhere to soil particles.
|
| 13. | The light isotopes can be made by fusing curium-243 with calcium-48.
|
| 14. | These are actinides other than uranium and plutonium and include neptunium, americium and curium.
|
| 15. | What's the reason for the island of stability from around thorium to curium?
|
| 16. | As a result, it is likely that curium will be excluded from most MOX fuels.
|
| 17. | That same year, Curium-244 was produced as a heat source for space exploration.
|
| 18. | Other elements that are named after people include fermium, einsteinium, curium, and gadolinium.
|
| 19. | Starting at uranium-238, isotopes of plutonium, americium, and curium are all produced.
|
| 20. | The Mars Exploration Rovers'Athena payload uses curium-244 with a source strength of approximately.
