Impure
Option 1: Contaminated

Correct Answer: Sterile
Solution : The correct choice is the third option .
Impure means something that is adulterated and mixed with some foreign matter.
Sterile means free from bacteria. Both of the words imply opposite things, as one means to be adulterated, whereas the other implies something that is free from any foreign matter, thus making them antonyms
