AI Generated Solution

To justify the difference in the enthalpy of hydrogenation between but-1-ene and but-2-ene, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Structures - **But-1-ene** has the structure: CH2=CH-CH2-CH3 - **But-2-ene** has the structure: CH3-CH=CH-CH3 ### Step 2: Analyze the Stability of Alkenes - The stability of alkenes is influenced by the number of alkyl groups attached to the double-bonded carbon atoms. More alkyl groups lead to greater stability due to hyperconjugation and inductive effects. ...
