Ion exchange resins are polymers that are capable of exchanging particular ions within the
polymer with ions in a solution that is passed through them. This ability is also seen in
various natural systems such as soils and living cells. The synthetic resins are used
primarily for purifying water, but also for various other applications including separating
out some elements.
In water purification the aim is usually either to soften the water or to remove the mineral
content altogether. The water is softened by using a resin containing Na+ cations but
which binds Ca2+ and Mg2+ more strongly than Na+. As the water passes through the resin
the resin takes up Ca2+ and Mg2+ and releases Na+ making for a 'softer' water. If the water
needs to have the mineral content entirely removed it is passed through a resin containing
H+ (which replaces all the cations) and then through a second resin containing OH- (which
replaces all the anions). The H+ and OH- then react together to give more water.
The process has some disadvantages in that there are substances occurring in some water
(such as organic matter or Fe3+ ions) which can foul the resin, but in general the
advantages of the process (long life of resins, cheap maintainance etc.) outweigh the
disadvantages. In addition, the process is very environmentally friendly because it deals
only with substances already occurring in water.
Simple, easy to carry out, quick, can be adapted to different needs, verstile, cheap, etc
Ion-exchange chromatography would be used to separate two proteins.
you can use atomic absorbent or ion exchange chromatography
there are different types like gas chrom. and thinlayer chrom Answer: There are two types of chromatography:liquid chromatography gas chromatography
A zeolite is any of several minerals which have a porous structure, such as aluminosilicates of sodium, potassium, calcium or magnesium, which are used in water softeners and ion exchange chromatography.

Yes they are the same
Ion-exchange chromatography would be used to separate two proteins.
Examples: distillation, ion-exchange, chromatography, decantation, extraction.

Single column depends upon small differences in conductivity between sample ions and elutent ions. Suppressor based ion exchange has a second ion exchange column, (suppressor) after the original ion exchanger that converts ions to a limited charged product.
