The answer is a.

Pure substances, by definition, are made of only one kind of atom/molecule, and cannot be broken down. Thus, their atoms cannot be separated.

b is incorrect because the atoms can't be separated.
c and d are incorrect because carbon dioxide and water do not have similar physical properties.
