View full question & answer→Correct option: C.
Both $A$ and $R$ are not correct.
Sulphur is estimated by Carius method in the form of white precipitate of $\mathrm{BaSO}_4$ on heating with fuming and $\mathrm{BaCl}_2$. If light yellow solid is obtained means impurities are present. It is filtered washed and then dried to get pure $\mathrm{BaSO}_4$.
