Solution

The correct option is D ClCH=CH2
CH3CH(Cl)COOH has chiral carbon, so it will show optical isomerism.

C6H5CH=NOH will show geometrical isomerism.

ClCH=CHCl will show cis/trans isomerism.

But ClCH=CH2 has two same groups attached with double bonded carbon.

So, it will not show any stereo-isomerism.

Option D is correct.
