If a collision is elastic, momentum and kinetic energy  are conserved. (No energy is lost to heat or sound).  In inelastic collisions kinetic energy is not conserved.

Collisions are of three types:
i)Elastic collision:here momentum & K.E.are conserved
ii)inelastic collision:momentum is conserved but K.E. is not conserved
iii)Perfectly inelastic collision: it is a special type of inelastic collision where the colliding bodies stick together and move as a single body.
