{wiki=Uranyl_sulfate}
Uranyl sulfate is a chemical compound consisting of uranium in its hexavalent state (U^6+) combined with sulfate ions (SO₄²⁻). Its chemical formula is typically represented as UO₂SO₄. It appears as a bright yellow crystalline solid and is considered a uranium salt. Uranyl sulfate is of significant interest in nuclear chemistry and radiochemistry, particularly due to its role in the extraction and processing of uranium for use in nuclear fuels and other applications.
