(A-D) $(i)$ Sublimation.
$(ii)$ Paper chromatography.
$(b)$ Crystallisation is a process that separates a pure solid in the form of its crystals from a solution.
The crystallisation technique is better than the simple evaporation technique because:
$1$. Some solids decompose or may get charred (e.g.,sugar) upon heating to dryness.
$2$. Some impurities may remain dissolved in the solution even after filtration; evaporation would cause these impurities to contaminate the solid,whereas crystallisation leaves them in the mother liquor.
