About $1000 per gram if you have the government's permission to buy it.

it costs around $34 US money

Plutonium 238 is the isotope used to fuel spacecraft.  It has a half life of about 88 years meaning that if you have 1 gram of it now, in 88 years you will have 1/2 gram of it.  The heat is used to power a thermocouple and that makes electricity.\n\nThess links are pretty good reading:\n\nhttp://www.epa.gov/radiation/radionuclides/plutonium.htm\n\nhttp://www.lanl.gov/source/orgs/nmt/nmtdo/AQarchive/05spring/heart.html\n\nhttp://www.uic.com.au/nip18.htm\n\nRemember, heat and temperature are too different things.  The environment where the stuff is kept would determine the temperature.  How much of it you have would determine the amount of heat it outputs.  I would surmise that over a period of 88 years, the heat output would be 1/2 of what it originally was.

Zinc is by far the best element. I also like plutonium.  It's just fun to say. "Plutonium."

You will need to know the density of Plutonium at the specific temperature and phase you are talking about.\n\nDensity = mass / volume\n\nDepending on the units of the density given, you may have to do some conversion, then simply solve for mass.\n\nMass and weight are NOT the same thing, nor do they have the same units.  Mass has units of kilograms where as Weight has units of Newtons.\nIf you truely do want the "Weight" of the Plutonium, then you must multiply its mass by the acceleration due to gravity is experiences (~9.81 m/s^2 on the surface of Earth).\nw = mg\n\n\nThe density of solid Plutonium at standard conditions is 19816 kg/m^3 which equals 19.816 kg/Liter.\nSo 1 Liter of Plutonium under these conditions has a mass of 19.816 kg and a weight of 194.4 Newtons.

In 1942 the Manhattan Engineer Project was set up in the United States under the command of Brigadier General Leslie Groves. Scientists recruited to produce an atom bomb included Robert Oppenheimer (USA), David Bohm (USA), Leo Szilard (Hungary), Eugene Wigner (Hungary), Rudolf Peierls (Germany), Otto Frisch (Germany), Niels Bohr (Denmark), Felix Bloch (Switzerland), James Franck (Germany), James Chadwick (Britain), Emilio Segre (Italy), Enrico Fermi (Italy), Klaus Fuchs (Germany) and Edward Teller (Hungary). \n\nhttp://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/USAmanhattan.htm\n\nThe Manhattan Project took over control of U.S. fission research, which had begun in 1939, starting in the fall of 1942, and resulted in the design, production, and detonation of three nuclear bombs in 1945. The first, using plutonium made at the Hanford, Washington, plant, was tested on July 16 as "Trinity", the world's first nuclear test, near Alamogordo, New Mexico. The second, an enriched uranium bomb code-named "Little Boy", was detonated on August 6, over Hiroshima, Japan. The third, another plutonium bomb, code-named "Fat Man", was detonated on August 9, over Nagasaki, Japan.\n\nThe primary sites of the project exist today as Hanford Site, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the National Security Complex and several other plants. The MED maintained control over U.S. weapons production until the formation of the Atomic Energy Commission in January 1947.\n\nAt its peak in 1945, the Project employed over 130,000 people, and cost a total of nearly $2 billion USD.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhattan_Project

That truly depends on what job you get and where you are willing to work. In the radiation protection field, you may find a job first as a junior technician on the road (traveling) and make about $50,000 a year or so. It is long hours and travel every couple months from nuclear power plant to nuclear power plant.

The answer is about $6000 usd.

Since there are 63,360 inches per mile, and since the distance to Pluto from Earth is 2.67 billion miles, then just multiply it.\n\nThe real value: 1.69171E+14 inches, so that's a lot of inches lol

Plutonium reacts readily with oxygen, forming PuO and PuO2, as well as intermediate oxides. It reacts with the halides, giving rise to compounds such as PuX3 where X can be F, Cl, Br or I; PuF4 is also seen. The following oxyhalides are observed: PuOCl, PuOBr and PuOI. It will react with carbon to form PuC, nitrogen to form PuN and silicon to form PuSi2.\n\nPlutonium like other actinides readily forms a dioxide plutonyl core (PuO2). In the environment, this plutonyl core readily complexes with carbonate as well as other oxygen moeities (OH-, NO2-, NO3-, and SO4-2) to form charged complexes which can be readily mobile with low affinities to soil.\n\n    * PuO2(CO3)1-2\n    * PuO2(CO3)2-4\n    * PuO2(CO3)3-6\n\nPuO2 formed from neutralizing highly acidic nitric acid solutions tends to form polymeric PuO2 which is resistant to complexation. Plutonium also readily shifts valences between the +3, +4, +5 and +6 states. It is common for some fraction of plutonium in solution to exist in all of these states in equilibrium.

The same as it would cost in New Orleans, Louisiana, or any other American city !\nBy the way, you are far too young to be enquiring about the price of cigarettes : does Momma know ?

Methinks.  Everything has a drawback no matter what - even wind and solar do.  Radioactivity is not caused by humans - the stuff came from the ground in the first place all we are doing in concentrating it.  The waste is a problem - yes - but Japan has had breeder reactors for years which not only eat up the plutonium which used to be waste but create even more energy in the process.  \nThe US currently uses 17 million barrels a day of crude.  The world uses about 84 million barrels.  Estimates of reserves vary widely - anywhere from 600 billion to 10 trillion barrels, which would last between 20 and 300 years at the rate we are using it, and we have probably 500 years worth of coal in the ground too, but it can't last forever.

do you mean in relation to Earth?\n\nEach Pluto day takes 6.39 Earth days and 1 Pluto year takes 247.7 Earth years...\n\nNow THAT would make birthdays nice and cheap!
