Questions and Answers

What is the primary reason for determining the solubility of a drug in pharmacy practice?

  • To establish the purity of the drug
  • To determine the quantitative definition of solubility
  • To identify the state of subdivision of the solute
  • To choose the best solvent medium for the drug (correct)
  • What is the term for a solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that the solvent can hold at a given temperature?

  • Homogeneous solution
  • Unsaturated solution
  • Supersaturated solution
  • Saturated solution (correct)
  • What is the unit of measurement for solubility as defined by the USP and NF?

  • Number of mL of solvent in which 1 mL of solute will dissolve
  • Number of grams of solvent in which 1 mL of solute will dissolve
  • Number of mL of solvent in which 1 g of solute will dissolve (correct)
  • Number of grams of solute in 1 mL of solvent
  • What is the term for a solution that contains more solute than it can hold at a given temperature?
