उत्तर
| Sr. No. | Absorption | Adsorption |
| 1. Definition | It is a process in which any substance (atoms, ions, or molecules) is taken by or absorbed by another substance, especially in the solid or liquid material. | The substances like gas, liquids or dissolved solids loosely adhere or stick to the surface of another substance which can be solid or liquid. |
| 2. Type of phenomenon | It is a bulk phenomenon. | It is a surface phenomenon. |
| 3. Type of process | Endothermic process. | Exothermic process. |
| 4. Rate of reaction | Uniform rate. | The reaction rate increases slowly and attains equilibrium. |
| 5. Concentration | Do not change its constant throughout the medium. | The concentration varies from bulk to the bottom of the absorbent. |
|
6. Temperature effect |
No effect of temperature. | Works at the lower temperature. |
| 7. Application | Cold storage, ice production, turbine inlet cooling, refrigerants, etc. | Air conditioning, water purification, synthetic resin, chillers, etc. |

There is a large group of materials P which can be divided into three groups Q, R and S on the basis of their properties. The substances belonging to group Q can be solids, liquids or gases. The solids belonging to group Q are usually electrical insulators. Most of the substances of group R are solids which are good conductors of electricity. The substances belonging to group S are neither insulators like Q nor good conductors like R. The properties of S are intermediate between those of Q and R.

A solid mixture contains four constituents P, Q, R and S. P consists of tiny grains and it is mixed with
cement for plastering the walls. Q is a white solid which is recovered on a large scale from sea water by the
process of evaporation. R is in the form of tiny particles of a material whose corrosion is called rusting. And
S is a white solid which is used in making ordinary dry cells.
