Out of the given options, sublimation processes could not be used to separate dissolved particles from the liquid in a solution.

Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Sublimation is process through which the matter converts directly into a solid state to the gaseous state. The process of sublimation occurs below the triple point temperature or pressure of the substance which is generally not a part of the processes for separation.

The other three options are the process through which one can separate elements from a mixture. Distillation is a technique which helps in separating the original liquid content from a solution. Evaporation and vaporisation are other steps of separation.
