About Uranium-235
Uranium-235 is an isotope of uranium making up about 0. 72% of natural uranium. Unlike the predominant isotope uranium-238, it is fissile, i. e. , it can sustain a fission chain reaction. It is the only fissile isotope that is primordial and found in relatively significant quantities in nature.
