The results of a study of the density and surface tension of melts in the system NaCl-KCl-UCl/sub 3/ is reported over wide ranges of temperature and concentration. Data on densities of melts of equimolar components of the system are available only in the literature. Density and surface tension data for melts of the binary mixtures, NaCl-KCl, NaCl-UCl/sub 3/, and KCl-UCl/sub 3/ are also literature values. Analysis of results shows that mixing of Na, K and uranium chlorides in melts is accompanied by complex formation of the type UCl/sub 5//sup 2 -/, and that their stability is greater than in the binary melts. 9 references, 3 figures, 1 table.
