Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The more substituents the alkenes have, the more stable they are. Thus, a tetra substituted alkene is more stable than a tri-substituted alkene, which is more stable than a di-substituted alkene or an unsubstituted one.

Answer:

Alkenes have substituents, hydrogen atoms attached to the carbons in the double bonds. The more substituents the alkenes have, the more stable they are. Thus, a tetra substituted alkene is more stable than a tri-substituted alkene, which is more stable than a di-substituted alkene or an unsubstituted one.
