Solution

The correct option is A

separation of mixture into its components


Fractional distillation is the process of separation of a mixture into its component parts, or fractions. Separation of chemical compounds is done using their boiling points and then heating them to a temperature at which one or more fractions of the compound will vaporize. It is a special type of distillation.
