a: Absorption-adsorption ~
b: playing with bread
What:
"A colleague made these analogies. Absorption is like pouring water over bread-the bread soaks up the water and changes in character. Adsorption is like spreading butter on bread-it sticks to the surface and cannot be entirely removed, but neither the bread nor the butter changes in character except at the surface."
