The mutual effects of uranyl nitrate and nitric acid on their extraction from acid solution with methylcyclohexanone were investigated. The distribution of the nitric acid alone for acid concentrations from 0.1 to 4M was first determined. The distribution of uranyl nitrate and nitric acid for uranyl concentration up to 2M and nitric acid concentrations of 0.1, 0.25, 1.0, 2.0, and 4M without the addition of salting out agents and under the same conditions with 5M NHiNO/sub 3/ in the aqueous phase was determined in the extraction with industrial methylcyclohexanone. The equations for the distribution of the HNO/ sub 3/ alone and of uranyl nitrate under the conditions given and for the density of the aqueous phase were found. In the simultaneous extraction of uranyl nitrate and nitric acid, either the salting out effect of the second component or their concurrent extraction occurs according to the conditions. (tr-auth)
