You get the solution faster than uncrushed tablet. At times a patient can not swallow the tablet and crush it before swallowing. But it is is not recommended to crush the tablets. That is problematic in case of delayed or sustained release tablets as well as for enteric coated tablets. You have the disturbed phrmacokinetics or the drug may get destroyed by acid in the stomach.
Crushing a tablet increases its surface area, which can lead to a faster dissolution rate in a solution because more of the tablet is exposed to the solvent. This can result in quicker absorption in the body due to a higher surface area available for interaction with the digestive fluids.
Crushing sugar into smaller particulates INCREASES the rate at which the sugar will dissolve because the water can act on a larger overall surface area.

Crushing an aspirin is a physical change because the small pieces are still chemically the same as the aspirin tablet.
This depends on the nature of tablet, temperature of water, stirring, crushing of the tablet to a fine powder, etc.

Crushing a tablet represents physical weathering because it involves breaking down the tablet into smaller pieces through a physical force, rather than a chemical reaction.

The tablet is a compounded medication.
Crushing a tablet primarily represents physical weathering, as it involves breaking down the tablet into smaller pieces through a physical force (crushing). Chemical weathering, on the other hand, involves the breakdown of materials through chemical reactions rather than physical processes.

I think it would increase the desolving rate

More surface area is exposed.
To separate a tablet from water, you can use evaporation. Leave the tablet and water solution in an open container and allow the water to evaporate, leaving behind the tablet. Alternatively, you can use filtration to separate the tablet from the water by passing the solution through a filter that captures the tablet while allowing the water to pass through.
