On purpose and deliberately, both are adverbs and they mean the same thing. However, "deliberately" can have a bit of a bad connotation (check this out: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/es/diccionario/ingles/deliberate)

As Santiago says, they are basically the same. His link is very useful too for the other uses of the word stem "deliberate".
In general usage "on purpose" seems a bit more personal and perhaps less grown up than "deliberately".
