Answer: c. I and III only.

Reason: The Unguator is an electric mortar-and-pestle type device intended for levigation, trituration and homogeneous mixing of semisolids (ointments/creams) and for reducing particle size of solids for incorporation into those preparations. It is not the appropriate tool for dissolving powders into liquids.
