The Ion-Exchange Separation of Zirconium and Hafnium

Description: In the course of a rather cursory examination of the elution of tetra-positive ions from the cation exchange resin Dowex 50 with hydrochloric acid solutions, the authors have discovered a very effective method of separating zirconium from hafnimu. In view of the great labor involved in preparing even reasonably pure hafnium compounds by existing methods, they feel that this procedure will prove very valuable to those interested in obtaining hafnium compounds free of zirconium. Although the cond… more

Paramagnetic Suseptibilities and Electronic Structure of AqueousCations of Elements 92 to 95

Description: Magnetic susceptibilities per gram atomic weight of elements 92 to 95 in most of their oxidation states were measured on 0.1 ml of solution which was 0.007 to 0.09 M in heavy element. The values obtained (all paramagnetic) in c.g.s. units x 10{sup 6} were: U(IV), 3690; Np(VI), 2060; Np(V), 4120; Np(IV), 4000; Pu(IV), 1610; Pu(III), 370; Am(III), 720. The results could be interpreted only on the basis of electronic configurations 5f{sup n}, even though susceptibilities were generally lower than … more

Electronic Structure of the Heaviest Elements

Description: All of the available evidence leads to the view that the 5f electron shell is being filled in the heaviest elements giving rise to a transition series which begins with actinium in the same sense that the rare earth or 'lanthanide' series begins with lanthanum. Such an 'actinide' series is suggested on the basis of evidence in the following lines: (1) chemical properties, (2) absorption spectra in aqueous solution and crystals, (3) crystallographic structure data, (4) magnetic susceptibility da… more

An Isotope Effect in a Simple Chemical Reaction

Description: It has been found that the carbon dioxide obtained from the decarboxylation of singly-carboxyl labeled malonic acid is impoverished in the C{sup 14} label and that the acetic acid formed is correspondingly enriched.

Review of the stack discharge active particle contamination problem

Description: Quantities of the order of ten million to 100 million radioactive particles per month were emitted from the stacks over a period of several months. High activity in the range 0.1 to 3..mu..c was probably confined to large carrier particles of corrosion debris from iron ductwork in the separations plant ventilation air system. This report discusses chemical, physical and radiochemical properties of the particles, and possible biological and health effects of exposure to them. (ACR)

The Determination of Uranium in K-65 (Gangue Lead Cake)

Description: The major problems in this determination are the extraction of X from the sample and the isolation of the extracted X. The application of various analytical methods to these two problems indicates that the current method of analysis yields values which may be as much as 15% high. The current method of analysis is subject to positive and negative errors. The magnitude of these errors varies with techniques and with sample composition. The recommend method, although longer, is believed to be free… more

A-(Substitutedbenzenesulfonyl)-Substitutedacetophenones

Description: This thesis discusses the preparation of a-(o-nitro-p-methylphenylmercapto)-acetophenone by the reaction between acetophenone and o-nitro-p-methylbenzenesulfenyl chloride in boiling chloroform. The use of stannous chloride in glacial acetic acid for the reduction of nitro groups to amino groups was found generally satisfactory in spite of the difficulty often met with in isolating the amino product.
