Solution

The correct option is C Geometrical Isomerism

The restricted rotation of an atom or groups around the doubly bonded carbon gives different geometries of a compound. Such compounds are called geometrical isomers. They differ in spatial arrangement from one another.
Geometrical Isomerism are also called as cis-trans Isomersim.
