Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple distillation is defined as a process in which a solution of two liquids with different boiling points is heated. The liquid with low boiling point evaporates readily and it vapors are collected through evaporation.

Hence, both the liquids are separated from each other.

Whereas chromatogarphy is a technique of separating components of a mixture into its substances.

Evaporation is a process in which liquid phase of a substance changes into vapor or gaseous phase.

Filtration is a technique of separating solid components in a solution with the help of a filtering medium.

Hence, we can conclude that best technique to use in order to separate a liquid from a solution is simple distillation.
