Q
Q: Which of the following alkenes is the most stable?
Solution:
2-Butene is more stable than 1-Butene due to hyperconjugation and steric factors.
Steps: 7
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that alkenes are hydrocarbons with a double bond between carbon atoms.
Step 2: Identify the two alkenes in the question: 1-Butene and 2-Butene.
Step 3: Recognize that stability in alkenes can be affected by hyperconjugation and steric factors.
Step 4: Hyperconjugation occurs when adjacent carbon atoms can share their electron density, which stabilizes the double bond.
Step 5: In 2-Butene, the double bond is between two carbon atoms that have more neighboring carbon atoms, allowing for more hyperconjugation.
Step 6: Steric factors refer to the spatial arrangement of atoms; 2-Butene has less steric hindrance compared to 1-Butene.
Step 7: Conclude that 2-Butene is more stable than 1-Butene because it benefits more from hyperconjugation and has less steric hindrance.
