Abstract
Ethyl butyrate shows about the same properties for the solvent extraction of thorium nitrate from aqueous solution as alcohols and ketones of comparable molecular weight. Ethyl acetate was found to be miscible with aqueous solutions containing appreciable amounts of thorium nitrate, and therefore to be unsuitable as an extractant in the concentrated range. It has been shown that the effect of added nitric acid on the distribution of thorium nitrate between water and an organic solvent lends support to the view that the salt is more or less completely ionized in aqueous solution, and undissociated in the organic phase.
