Solution
The correct option is C Chair
Chair form is the most stable form of cyclohexane.
The most stable conformation of cyclohexane is the chair form shown. The C-C-C bonds are very close to 109.5o, so it is almost free of angle strain. It is also a fully staggered conformation and so is free of torsional strain.
