  Uranium is an element, so if you are talking about a single atom that is all it has, the one atom.
  If you are talking about, for example, 1gram of Uranium and it is only Uranium-238 in that sample (other isotopes are also common), you would have 2.5×10^21 atoms in there.
  
  The maths is simple: divide the weight of your sample by the atomic mass of Uranium-238 to find out how many moles are in there, and then multiplying by Avogadro’s number.
