An examples of an aromatic compound is Benzene(C6H6) which is the “master” of all aromatic compounds such as C6H5OH. Thes aromatic compounds are very capable of forming cyclic chains. The aliphatic compounds are the alkane, alkene, alkyne, alkanols, alkanoics etc. C6H12 is an alkene which has the functional group of CnH2n (i.e n=6 in C6H12). Unusually and suprisingly, C6H12 which is an alkene is also capable of forming cyclic chains too called cyclohexane. Therefore they are correct and the answer is A
