The phase during mitosis in which DNA separates into pairs of chromosomes is metaphase. This is the second stage of mitosis. This is the phase that chromosomes are at a condensed and coiled stage. Metaphase occurs about 4% of the duration of cell cycle.

The answer is PROPHASE.  One of the first visible signs of mitosis is a shortening and thickening of each DNA chromatin which now appears as a single strand. Each chromosome pair consists of a strand of genetic material attached by a centromere.
