Absorption in chemistry refers to a process in which one substance is taken up into the structure of another substance. This typically involves a solute being absorbed by a solvent, leading to a homogeneous mixture, or it might involve gas or liquid being absorbed by a solid. In a more specific context, absorption can occur in various scenarios: 1. **Liquid-Liquid Absorption**: In this case, a solute from one liquid is absorbed into another liquid phase.
