C .  U-238 can be used in chain reactions only after extracting U-235 from it
D .  Uranium enrichment is a process where concentration of U-238 is increased using some chemical processes
Answer: Option B


C is not correct because U-238 will support chain reactions after it is converted to plutonium-239. D is also incorrect because of its concentration of U-235 that matters.
