Abstract
The composition and stability of uranyl citrate complexes in aqueous solutions of the ionic medium of 1M-(H,Na,(UO2)0.5)A3 (where H3A represents citric acid) were studied based on the potentiometric and spectrophotometric data. The best fit to the experimental data was obtained with the set of complexes UO2A-, (UO2A)22-, HUO2A, (HUO2A)2, and H2UO2A+, the former three complexes being significant in the whole concentration region.
