Chapter 5.9, Problem 26P

The same alkane is obtained from the catalytic hydrogenation of both alkene A and alkene B. The heat of hydrogenation of alkene A is 29.8 kcal/mol, and the bent of hydrogenation of alkene B is 31.4 kcal/mol which alkene is more stable?

The heat of hydrogenation of cis-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-hexene is -154 kJ (-36.7 kcal)/ mol, while that of the trans isomer is only -113 kJ (-26.9 kcal)/mol. Q.) Why is the heat of hydrogenation of the cis isomer so much larger (more negative) than that of the trans isomer?
