Ion exchange itself is an adsorption reaction too. The question is probably about the difference between ion exchange and specific sorption.
In ion exchange, an ion sorbs to the surface by removing an other ion of the same valence or multiple ions of lower valence. In this way, ion exchange never changes the surface charge.
Specific sorption describes the inner sphere complexing of an ion to the surface without the need for other ions to be removed. In this way, specific sorption is able to alter the surface charge.

What is the difference between an ion and an electrolyte?
molecules
What is the difference between an Ion and an Molecule?
Ions are charged.
What is the relationship between rate of ion exchange and surface to volume ratio?
As the surface to volume ratio increases the rate of in exchange increases too.
What is ion exchange?
oin exchange
What is the Difference between atom in ground state and ion?
The number of electrons.
Is ion exchange adsorption and ion exchange chromatography is same?
Yes they are the same

What is the difference between single column and column suppressor ion chromatography?
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.

What is the difference between an ion and an electrolyte?
molecules
What is the reaction between Na OH and H Cl is called?
Ion-exchange reaction or just exchange reaction.
