difference in tile thin set?

Question

what is the difference in the powder thin set & the pre mix? Also i was told the pre mix is not as good & never to use it for floors. I saw different types at home depot & 1 of hte pre mix says is is for granite/marble which i would think u need a strong glue for the weight. So do u use powder for floor & the pre mix for walls? Also I saw that had a acrylic mix also in powder. what is that for.. thank you
