Best Answer

In short, a spectrometer utilises a wide range of wavelengths from the electromagnetic spectrum whereas a spectrophotometer utilises only a small section of the electromagnetic spectrum (usually only near-visible light....we usually use U.V).

Apart from that, the two are actually extremely similar.
