Radiochemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

The rate of Pu(IV) reduction with tert-butylhydrazine in an HNO3 solution is described by the equation-d[Pu(IV)]/dt = k[Pu(IV)]2[(CH3)3CN2H +4 ]/[H+], where k = 69.4 ⊥ 3.0 l mol−1 min−1 at 50°C. The activation energy is E = 122 ⊥ 4 kJ mol−1. Probable reaction mechanisms are discussed.
