Best Answer

A mortar and pestle is often used for crushing up items into a powder. It is often used in the kitchen for crushing spices into a powder as well as crushing other dried goods. A pestle and mortar is used in chemistry to powder solids, sometimes in order to make them more readily dissolved.
