Behavior of uranyl molybdate in molten Na{sub 2}MoO{sub 4}-Na{sub 2}Mo{sub 2}O{sub 7} salt mixture at 1073 K in air was studied using cyclic linear voltammetry and potentiometric titration techniques. Uranyl complexes of two types ([UO{sub 2}(MoO{sub 4}){sub 2}]{sup 2{minus}} and UO{sub 3}MoO{sub 4}{sup 2{minus}}) were shown to be formed in the solution upon the addition of UO{sub 2}MoO{sub 4}. The composition of a cathodic product was found to be determined by the molar ratio of these two complexes in the melt.
