(d) Steam distillation

Explanation:

The most suitable method for separtion of a 1 : 1 mixture of ortho and para nitrophenols is Steam distillation as there are intramolecular H-bonds in ortho nitrophenol. Ortho - nitrophenol is steam volatile while para - nitrophenol is not. Steam distillation is a separation process which consists in distilling water together with other volatile and non-volatile components.

Option D is the answer.
