Difference between Absorption and Adsorption

Adsorption and absorption are the types of homophones, however, their significance and applications are different and therefore they cannot be replaced in the context of each other.
The most significant absorption and adsorption are that absorption is the strategy under which the solution is dissolved by every liquid. On the other hand, Adsorption is the strategy under which the molecule or ion from a substance holds to the flooring of the adsorbent.
Absorption:
Absorption is a bulk process that means in which the absorbate or substance is completely dispersed in the other medium, ex. Liquid, solid or gas. Due to the place in the matter, the absorbent material remains intact, but there is no chemical connection with each other. Once the absorbent is absorbed in another substance, it cannot be easily separated.
Adsorption:
Adsorption is the surface of the phenomenon, in this state, there is the adsorbate (solid, liquid or gas) deposited on another adsorbent which may be liquid or solid. In it, the absorbate is slackly absorbed with absorbent and it is classified as chemisorptions and physisorption.
