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.

What effect does crushing have on solution rate?
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.

Are all solution mixture are all mixture solution?
Not all mixtures are solutions and vice versa. A mixture could be spaghetti and bolognese but that isn't a solution because nothing dissolves in to the other thing. A tablet in water is a solution because the tablet dissolves.
