Final answer:
Proper understanding of formula preparation includes following the instructions on the formula container and boiling the water before use. Using tap water without boiling and preparing a daily batch are not recommended practices.
Step-by-step explanation:
Correct formula preparation is essential for infant health and safety. When a client understands the proper preparation, they would say:
- I'll follow the instructions on the formula container for mixing, which ensures the correct ratio of formula to water.
- I'll boil the water before mixing the formula, which is a safety step to eliminate potential contaminants from the water.
The statement about using tap water is not necessarily correct, as some areas may have tap water that is unfit for infant formula preparation without boiling it first. Moreover, preparing a batch of formula to use throughout the day may lead to bacterial growth if the formula is not stored correctly, so it is recommended to prepare fresh formula for each feeding or store it according to the guidelines.
For the preparation of solutions in chemistry, the principles are similar but more precise: measuring the correct mass of solute, adding the solute to the solvent (usually less than the desired final volume of solution), and mixing properly. This ensures a solution with the desired molarity.
