Remember this!
Chromatograph and chromatogram are closely related terms in the field of chromatography. A chromatograph is a scientific instrument used to separate and analyze the components of a mixture, while a chromatogram is the visual representation or output of the experiment, showing the separated components. The main difference between the two is that chromatograph refers to the instrument or equipment used, while chromatogram refers to the graphical representation of the separated components.
