Solution

The correct option is D

Iron particles and sand


In the magnetic separation process, we use magnets for separating components of mixtures to attract magnetic materials from the non-magnetic material. In the mixture of iron particles and sand, iron is a magnetic material which attracts towards the magnet by leaving the sand behind.
