The kinetics of the oxtraction of U(IV) chloride in the TOPO-HCl system has been studied using the single drop technique, The effects of the concentrations of U(IV, TOPO and HCl on the extraction rate for U(IV) have been examined. The extraction rate measured were found to be of first order with respect to (U(IV)) and (TOPO) (0). Moreover, the rate varied with (HCl)^3^/^2 between 2-7M hydrochloric acid. The extraction rate equation can be written as R=K(U(IV))(TOPO)(0) The rate constant K was evaluated to be 3.7X10^-^5 at 3M HCl and 15`C. The extraction rate was increased with increasing temperature. The apparent activation energy was found to be 10.8 kcal/mol between 15 to 45`C. It is suggested that the rate-controlling step may be the chemical reaction of UCl4 with TOPO at the interface and the formation of the interfacial complex UCL4.TOPO.
