  • Abstract
    The cyclic voltammetric behavior of uranyl ion was investigated at hanging mercury drop electrode in perchlorate supporting electrolyte. The standard heterogeneous electrons transfer rate constant k, for the reduction of uranium from U(VI) to U(V) state was 2.72×10^-1 cm sec^-1 in simple perchlorate medium and in the presence of 0.40 mol L^-1 sulphate ions the value of k. was 2.56 × 10^-1 cm sec^-1.
