    III. Liquation
    IV. Distillation

    A)  I, II

    C)  II, III, IV

    D)  Only IV

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    (I) \[\underset{\operatorname{Impure}}{\mathop{Ni}}\,+4CO\xrightarrow{330-350\,K}Ni\,{{(CO)}_{4}}\]\[\xrightarrow{450-470\,K}\underset{\text{Pure}}{\mathop{Ni}}\,+4CO\,(Mond\,process)\] (II) \[\underset{\operatorname{Impure}}{\mathop{Zr}}\,+2{{I}_{2}}\xrightarrow{870\,K}Zr{{I}_{4}}\]\[\xrightarrow[Tungesten\,\,filament]{2075\,K}\underset{\text{Pure}}{\mathop{Zr}}\,+2{{I}_{2}}(Van\,Arkel\,process)\]
