Only reboiler and partial condenser act as a equilibrium stage, not total condenser.

No, because if we use partial condenser or reboiler then and then it will be equal to one theoretical stage.

Partial condenser and Kettle reboiler are considere as a ideal plate.

The total condenser is not considered as a theoretical plate. In Partial condenser and reboiler separation take plate so they consider as a theoretical plate.

So, the answer will be Partial condenser and Reboiler.

What about option A? Partial condenser also acts as a separator. Isn't it?

Both A & C should be the right answer.
