The correct choice is (a) Distillation flask, condenser, collection vessel

For explanation I would say: Distillation apparatus consists of three units, they are distillation flask which is used for heating the mixture and volatizing the components. Next is condenser for cooling the vapors back to liquid state and lastly collection vessel for collecting the end product.
