sampling variability and improper calibration of an instrument.

--Actually, improper calibration of an instrument would be a systematic error, as it would always be in the same direction and by the same amount.

--Random errors are unknown, unpredictable changes in the instruments or the environment. For example, the temperature of the room changed, or the doors of a balance were left open.

--Random errors are things that can be corrected for (mostly) by repeating the experiment or averaging the current results.
