Abstract

This work describes the uncertainty calculation for the determination of chromium oxide in leather. Following the various steps for the calculation of uncertainty which includes assembling a list of sources of uncertainty, with the help of basic formula used to calculate the measure and as all parameters cause an influence on the result because of the uncertainty value associated with it then the basic cause and effect diagram is made which shows the correlation between these and indicates their effect on the uncertainty of the result.

All individual sources of uncertainty are evaluated by quantification. Mass, purity, and molecular mass of potassium dichromate are calculated against the volume of sodium thiosulphate following the first step in the test method is the standardization of sodium thiosulphate with the primary standard, potassium dichromate. So the overall uncertainty value depends on the uncertainties associated with the mass, purity, and molecular mass of potassium dichromate.

Deride Krom Oksit Tayini için Belirsizlik Hesaplaması

Abstract

Bu çalışma, deride krom oksit tayini için belirsizlik hesaplamasını açıklamaktadır. Ölçümü hesaplamak için kullanılan temel formül yardımıyla ve tüm parametreler kendisiyle ilişkili belirsizlik değeri nedeniyle sonuç üzerinde bir etkiye neden olduğundan, belirsizlik kaynaklarının bir listesinin bir araya getirilmesini içeren belirsizliğin hesaplanması için çeşitli adımların ardından bunlar arasındaki korelasyonu gösteren ve sonucun belirsizliği üzerindeki etkisini gösteren temel neden-sonuç diyagramı yapılmaktadır.

Tüm bireysel belirsizlik kaynakları niceleme ile değerlendirilir. Potasyum dikromatın kütlesi, saflığı ve moleküler kütlesi, sodyum tiyosülfatın hacmine göre hesaplanır ve test yöntemindeki ilk adım, sodyum tiyosülfatın birincil standart olan potasyum dikromat ile standardizasyonudur. Dolayısıyla genel belirsizlik değeri, potasyum dikromatın kütlesi, saflığı ve moleküler kütlesi ile ilişkili belirsizliklere bağlıdır.
