Question

What are the advantages and diadvantages of preparing a standard solution?​

Answer 1

advantages:

. The error due to weighing the solute can be minimised by using concentrated stock solution that requires large quantities of solute. 2. We can prepare working standards of different concentrations by diluting the stock solution which is more efficient since consistency is maintained

3. Some of the concentrated solutions are more stable and are less likely to support microbial growth than working standards used in the experiments.
