Question:
What are the advantages of preparing solutions?
Answer:
In a solution, solute and solvent may be present in the form of ions or molecules or both. Solutions are obtained for the following reasons:
- To carry out reactions. For a reaction to take place, reactant molecules must come close together. In solutions, reactions take place faster because reactants are in ionic or molecular form an dare close to each other.
- As dissolving medium like medicines. Certain medicines can only be administered to patients in solution form only. e.g. saline glucouse solution is given to patients suffering from dehydration.
