I guess you mean Electrolytic capacitor and Ceramic capacitor.
There is only one significant difference between these two capacitors. Electrolytic capacitor should be connected by considering its polarity (the +ve and -ve terminal) but for ceramic polarity is not important (means you can connect which way you want to connect also).
For more info :- Try wiki Electrolytic capacitor
actually there is some different .. well it's a about ESR,ESL.There is only one significant difference between these two capacitors.

Although tantalum and electrolytic cap is much much more expensive than a ceramic, but it do have it pros.
just 2 cents
