I'm looking at a question with a passage that contains the heats of hydrogenation of various alkenes, ranging from least to most substituted. The numbers become progressively less negative.
One question asks that "The greatest amount of energy is released by the oxidative cleavage of an alkene that is:"
The answer was unsubstituted
Another question asks, "The greatest amount of energy is required to break which of the following carbon carbon bonds?""
And the answer was the fully substituted...
Strength of alkenes
