How is UF4 made?
UF4 is formed by the reaction of UF6 with hydrogen gas in a vertical tube-type reactor. UF4 is less stable than the uranium oxides and reacts slowly with moisture at ambient temperature, forming UO2 and HF, the latter of which is very corrosive and toxic; it is thus less favorable for long-term disposal.

What is the name of sf6?
Sulfur hexafluoride
Sulfur hexafluoride/IUPAC ID
Greenhouse Gas Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is a synthetic fluorinated compound with an extremely stable molecular structure.
What is the oxidation number of U in UF6?
So fluorine’s oxidation number is -6. This is a molecular compound, so the sum of the oxidation numbers has to equal to 0. Therefore, the uranium atom has an oxidation number of +6.

Why is U-235 better than u-238?
Gaseous diffusion process As U-235 molecules are lighter than the U-238 molecules they move faster and have a slightly better chance of passing through the pores in the membrane. The UF6 which diffuses through the membrane is thus slightly enriched, while the gas which did not pass through is depleted in U-235.
