Uranium solutions can be analyzed accurately by reducing uranium(VI) quantitatively to uranium(III) in a Jones reductor and then titrating it with potassium dichromate. The reduction is quantitative in 1M hydrochloric or 1M perchloric acid medium if the uranium solution is more dilute than 0.01M. The effluent is caught in a deaerated solution of iron(III), which is reduced by the uranium(III) to iron(iII), which is then titrated with potassium dichromate. (auth)
