Solution
The correct option is A It is an eclipsed conformation. Eclipsed conformation:
A conformation where the atoms/substituents attached on the adjacent carbons are at a minimum distance or in closest proximity with ϕ=0.
(where ϕ is the tosional angle)
Atoms bonded to carbons at each end of a C-C bond are directly opposed to one another.
