There is no purpose.
ZeeNOObster is wrong. An experimenter would use random assignment/placement is such a case that he/she may not have a large sample and wants to make sure that some attribute is evenly divided into the groups.
example: some sort of study where IQ is of importance. To make sure that participants IQs are evenly distributed among the groups, the researcher would find out the participant's IQs and then randomly assign the top IQs to different groups, then moderate IQs and followed by low IQs. This is a simplistic way of looking at random placement

Why is random assignment important?
Groups have equal and balanced composition
What is a science laboratory?

Science what is a sample taken without bias?
The answer is Random Sample
Why is the random assignment of individuals to experimental and control groups important for an experiment?
Without random assignment there is a danger of systematic error - or bias - entering into the results. Statistical theory depends on the errors being random and independent error and that is no longer the case without random assignment. In fact, statistical experiments are often "double-blind": even the observer does not know which individual is in which group. This is to prevent unconscious or subconscious messages to affect the outcome (placebo effects).
Why do you do random assignment and random sampling?
That's a random question
Where can I find ideas for kids science experiments?
Kids receive some interesting homework from their school. Sometimes they receive an assignment to make a science experiment. The best place to research kids' science experiments is the internet. The parent and student can research sites like ScienceFairSanity.com and Education.com for many science experiment ideas.
How does random assignment in experiments differ from random sampling in surveys?
Random sampling in surveys takes a randomly selected smaller group from a larger population (so the smaller group is a sample of the larger group). Random assignment separates (randomly) this chosen small group further, into a control group and a treatment group for experiments. For instance, in research surveys: if a group of sick people are asked about their symptoms, they are placed in separate categories of similar symptoms, and then are diagnosed with particular illnesses. Further, in random assignment: if one medicine is given to the group, and it only helps certain symptoms, then a cure has been found for only those particular illnesses, and not the others. You see, random sampling asks certain questions of subjects and gets various responses, whereas, random assignment applies certain principles to subjects and gets various responses. Both ways lead to results which render solutions to problems. If not, further experimentation needs to be made.

What is the difference between random assignment and random sampling?
Random sampling is the sample group of subjects that are selected by chance, without bias. Random assignment is when each subject of the sample has an equal chance of being in either the experimental or control group of an experiment.
What do you do in science?
In science you do experiments and observe things
What is the difference between random sampling and random assignment?
Random assignment: assigning participants to experimental and control conditions by chance Vs. Random sample: a sample that fairly represents a population because each member has an equal chance of being included You decide :-D
