Hi Akshiiiii,
Greetings!

You can store that value in another list and then you can use that single value.
For example, you want to use the email of Contact. 
List<String> emailList = new List<String>();
for(Contact con : [SELECT Email FROM Contact]) {
    emailList.add(con.Email);
}
Now, you can use emailList where you want.

If you find your Solution then mark this as the best answer. 

Thank you!

Hi Akshiiiii,

If you are refering list of records in VF page to iterate over, you can refer below code snippet 
  
<apex:repeat var="contact" value="{!contactList}">
 
        <tr>
 
            <td>{!contact.FIELD_API_NAME}</td>
        </tr>
 
</apex:repeat>

Please let me know if it solves your purpose. If not please share where your are trying to access the value of only one of the fields from that list.

Regards,
Surojit
