Option A Rhombic sulfur ,This is the correct answer. Rhombic sulfur is the most stable form of sulfur at room temperature and pressure. It has a crystalline structure and exists as yellow crystals.

Explanation of incorrect option 

Incorrect option B Monoclinic sulfur: This is an allotropic form of sulfur, but it is not the most stable form at room temperature and pressure. Monoclinic sulfur has a different crystal structure compared to rhombic sulfur and is less common.

Incorrect option C Amorphous sulfur: This is another allotropic form of sulfur, but it is not the most stable form at room temperature and pressure. Amorphous sulfur lacks a definite crystal structure and appears as a yellow powder or solid.

Incorrect option D  Plastic sulfur: This is an allotropic form of sulfur, but it is not the most stable form at room temperature and pressure. Plastic sulfur is a metastable form of sulfur that can be produced by heating rhombic sulfur to a specific temperature and then cooling it rapidly. It has a rubbery texture and is sometimes used in manufacturing.
