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.
