What is the main difference between chromatography and adsorption?
What is the main difference between chromatography and adsorption?
- Chromatography uses solid adsorbents, while adsorption uses liquid adsorbents on a solid support.
- Chromatography separates components in gas or liquid mixtures, while adsorption is used to remove components present in low concentrations.
- Chromatography involves passing the feed through a bed of packing, while adsorption requires a pressure field. (correct)
- Chromatography is used for the purification of p-xylene, while adsorption is used for the separation of xylene isomers and ethylbenzene.
