Solution

The correct option is B chemical
Pure substances can be divided into elements and compounds. Pure substances need a chemical process for their separation i.e., a chemical reaction must occur to separate pure substances (elements and compounds) into its constituent atoms/elements.
Pure substances cannot be separated by physical methods. But mixtures can be separated by physical methods like evaporation, filtration, sedimentation, centrifugation, separating funnel etc.
