Measurement Uncertainty Calculator (Mass/Volume → Concentration)
A practical tool for uncertainty calculation, error propagation, and concentration from weighing and volume inputs.
- Calculates combined standard uncertainty (uc) and expanded uncertainty (U = k·uc) from weighing/volume/dilution inputs
- Convert ±tolerance to standard uncertainty on the spot
- Shows contribution breakdown to identify dominant error sources
Designed to complete in the first 10 seconds: input → results → report copy on one screen.

- Copy results into your report
Practical examples
Example 1: mg/L from weighing (mg) and volumetric flask (mL)
Estimate concentration uncertainty from mass and volume tolerances
Example 2: Standard dilution (C2 = C1·V1/V2)
Evaluate uncertainty from stock concentration, aliquot, and final volume
Example 3: Ratio (A/B)
Display ratios such as recovery in %
Monthly rent increase
Only ±tolerance is available (SD unknown)
You can convert ±tolerance to standard uncertainty using assumed distribution: Normal (with k) u = a / k, Rectangular u = a / √3, Triangular u = a / √6.
Which k should I use?
k=2 (about 95%) is commonly used. Follow your standard, internal rule, or client requirement.

Beleške
- This tool assumes independent inputs and uses first-order (linearized) error propagation.
- If inputs are correlated or errors are large and nonlinear, results can be under- or over-estimated.
- Unit conversion is explicit to avoid input mistakes.
