Step 1: Define Adsorption in Purification Context

Adsorption is the process by which molecules (adsorbate) stick to the surface of a solid (adsorbent). Different compounds adsorb with different strengths based on their polarity and the nature of the adsorbent.

Step 2: Match Each Method to Its Principle

| Method | Principle |
|---|---|
| Extraction | Differential solubility (partition) in two immiscible solvents |
| Chromatography ✅ | Differential adsorption on a solid stationary phase |
| Dis
