Best Answer Explained in Below-:

The phrase "If I had known you were coming-" implies a hypothetical situation in the past that did not occur. In English, this type of conditional statement is typically constructed in the third conditional form, which expresses regret or a reflection on a situation that cannot be changed.

The correct answer, D) "I would have gone to the station," follows this structure perfectly. It uses "would have" to indicate a potential action (going to the station) that was dependent on a condition (knowing you were coming) that did not materialize. This aligns with the past perfect tense "had known," which establishes that the speaker is discussing a past scenario.

The other options present various inconsistencies: A) "I would go the station" uses the simple present, which is not appropriate for discussing a past hypothetical; B) "I had gone to the station" suggests a completed action without considering the condition; C) "I would be going to the station" mixes conditional forms improperly. Thus, option D accurately conveys the intended meaning of regret for not being able to act based on what was unknown at that time.
