This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Using a silver – silver chloride reference electrode, the electrode potentials of the system U, UCl3(KCl, NaCl) and the redox potentials of the system Pt, UCl3, UCl4(KCl, NaCl) were measured at various concentrations of the uranium chlorides and at temperatures between 650 and 850 °C.From the results, the electrode potential of the system U, UCl4(KCl, NaCl) was calculated. In addition, the activity coefficients and partial molal properties of dilute solutions of UCl3 and UCl4 in the equimolar mixture of potassium and sodium chlorides were calculated.
