Solution

The correct option is A
For cycloalkene rings, when the number of carbon is less than 8 its trans form does not exist. Hence, no geometrical isomerism across the pi-bond is observed in 3-7 membered cycloalkenes. Hence, option (b) and (c) will not show geometrical isomerism.

Cycloalkenes with 8 or more carbons in a ring exhibit geometrical isomerism.

For cycloalkenes having ring size of 12 or more carbon atoms, trans-isomer is more stable than cis-isomer.

Hence, the correct answer is option (a).
