What is the difference between absorption and adsorption?
101729
Adsorption is a surface phenomenon, but absorption is not a boundary layer effect. \n\nIn adsorption, molecules, gases and dissolved substances are adhered to the surface of a material. In absorption, the molecules, gases and dissolved substances enter the interior of the material.

molecules are turned into ions....by an electron beam...\nions are separated according to their mass...by a magnet, deflection....\n\nmass spectroscopy can be used to study or analyse mixture of compounds....

It is thermodynamic concepts. Where the high temperature resorvior heat energy transfer to low temperature resorvior (cool), that process known as absorbtion. It can be both way either heat or cool absorbing system.

both are diff pls refer any Univ which will help u to know better

A solution could absorb energy from photons, but they are a measurement of light. Rather than being absorbed, for example, the solar radiation breaks down chemicals in the leaves of plants which allows the plants to form food. Rather than being absorbed, the energy causes a change, such as increased temperature and chemical reaction.

Hey \n  every year i do a science fair project on plants and last year i learned how it happens.  First of all it is called absorbtion  Next, the water is sucked up by the ruts when the plant is looking for nutrients. then it takes the water to a different part of the (stomach) of the plant and it eats the water.\n  Hope i helped

They probably are used for the same thing, but in the first, the water molecules are part of the crystal and found in repeated and regular levels.\n\nIn the interstitial, the water molecules may not be present in the same level in all the crystals and the level can not be predicted.

Radioligands are simply "labeling" a substance (in this case, the ligand) with radioactive atoms.  Typically, the ligand binds to a molecule that you are interested in detecting.  Since you can't "see" ligand or the molecule of interest, when the ligand is exposed to your mixture containing hopefully the molecule of interest, the presence of that molecule of interest can be indirectly "shown" by the radioactivity of the ligand.

Soil absorbs moisture. It has small openings and the water gets in the small holes. The cohesion and adhesion of the water constitute a force that keeps the water in the soil, to a certain extent.

Different chemical composition, one has a reaction the other doesn't..☺

It's a relatively inexpensive way to measure the absorbance of aqueous solutions in the visible region of the spectrum.  Absorbances can be related to concentrations, so this is heavily used in quantitative chemical analyses.

Gas-liquid chromatography is useful for a wide range of non-polaranalytes, but poor for thermally labile molecules. \nAtomic absorption spectroscopy reveals identity and concentration of atoms and ions,it does not provide any other information about molecules,bonds etc.

solid to gas is endothermic reaction as it absorbs energy\ngas to solid is exothermic as it give off energy

Atomic spectroscopy is the determination of elemental composition by its electromagnetic or mass spectrum. Atomic spectroscopy is closely related to other forms of spectroscopy. It can be divided by atomization source or by the type of spectroscopy used. In the latter case, the main division is between optical and mass spectrometry. Mass spectrometry generally gives significantly better analytical performance, but is also significantly more complex. This complexity translates into higher purchase costs, higher operational costs, more operator training, and a greater number of components that can potentially fail. Because optical spectroscopy is generally less expensive and has performance adequate for many tasks, it is far more common. Atomic absorption spectrometers are one of the most commonly sold and used analytical instruments.\n\nFind out more here: \nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_spectroscopy

If you mean to ask what the difference between a solution and a suspension is, then a solution is when the solute is dissolved into the solvent completely, and a suspension is when energy must be constantly applied to the mixture in order to keep it mixed up (like shaking, stirring, etc.)\n\nHope this helps...

They are about the same density so they sould absorb in about the same time. How you can tell this is the fact that water and milk mix completely. One does not seperate from the other (ex. oil and water)

Osmosis is the movement of water across a barrier.  Diffusion is the movement of other molecules, not necessarily across a barrier. Check out - \nhttp://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/feb2000/951455351.Cb.r.html for a more detailed answer on what diffusion is compared to osmosis.
