The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

(A) Coloured impurities are adsorbed on activated charcoal: (R).
(B) o-Nitrophenol is steam volatile (intramolecular H-bonding) whereas p-nitrophenol is not (intermolecular H-bonding), so they are separated by steam distillation: (P).
(C) Crude naphtha is a mixture of liquids with close boiling points, separated by fractional distillation: (Q).
(D) Glycerol decomposes at its normal boiling point, so it is separated from sugars by distillation under reduced pressure: (S).
Match: A-R, B-P, C-Q, D-S, i.e. option (3).
Answer: (3) (A)-(R), (B)-(P), (C)-(Q), (D)-(S)
