Answer :

This question is based on punctuation.

Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'punctuation' as 'special marks that are placed in a text to show the divisions between phrases and sentences, or the use of these marks.'

Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'hyphen' as 'the mark (-) used in writing to join two words together, or between the syllables of a word when it is divided at the end of a line of text.'

The following sentence is not correctly hyphenated :

D) He's in a state of-happiness.
