Chapter 7.7, Problem 8P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The name and stability (most stable to least stable) of given alkenes has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Delocalized electrons:  Electrons that are not localized in one particular atom or bond and shared by three or more atoms are called delocalized electrons.

Compounds with two double bonds are known as dienes.

Stability of diene: The number of alkyl group increases with increasing the stability of the dienes.

Conjugated diene: Dienes are hydrocarbons with two double bonds; where the conjugated double bonds are separated by one single bond.

Resonance contributor:  In some chemical compounds like benzene pi electrons are delocalized in it and difficult to locate it.  Resonance contributor gives an idea of whereabouts of pi electrons.  The exact structure with localized electrons are called resonance contributor.
