A key point is that accurate sampling is crucial to minimize errors and meet standards, such as limiting iron in NaBr to under 5 ppm. The text also explains variance in sampling and analytical methods, illustrating the propagation of uncertainty through examples and exercises.

Quali...The text explains that quality control directives are crucial for analysis but not enough to ensure statistical control, which is managed by quality assessment???a key part of quality assurance. Quality assessment helps maintain, detect, and suggest solutions for loss of statistical control. It includes internal methods, like analyzing duplicate samples and spikes, and external methods, such as laboratory certification by an agency.

Errors affecting accuracy and precision are addressed through propagation of uncertainty. The page covers probability distributions, normal distribution confidence intervals, and statistical analysis techniques such as t-tests and F-tests for comparing data sets.
