Answer:

Condensation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The boiling point of water is much higher than that of either nitrogen or oxygen gas . So when the mixture is condensed to a temperature lower than

100°C , water vapor will come out first in the form of water leaving other

elements of mixture in gaseous phase. In this way, water vapor will get separated from others.
