Answer:

A. Ethene

Step-by-step explanation:

Ethene, propene and the various butenes are gases at room temperature. All the rest that you are likely to come across are liquids. Boiling points of alkenes depends on more molecular mass (chain length). The more intermolecular mass is added, the higher the boiling point
