Isobutylene (2-methylpropene) is more stable than 1-butene due to its branched structure, which reduces steric strain and allows for greater hyperconjugation. The presence of methyl groups in isobutylene stabilizes the double bond through hyperconjugative interactions, as the adjacent methyl groups can donate electron density to the π-bond. In contrast, 1-butene has a straight-chain structure with less hyperconjugation and higher steric strain, making it less stable. Overall, the branching in isobutylene contributes to its increased stability compared to 1-butene.
What else can I help you with?
Can isobutylene mixed with water?
Isobutylene is slightly soluble in water, but it will not mix homogeneously. The two substances will form separate layers, with isobutylene usually floating on top of the water due to its lower density.
What is Names and formula of compounds formed by the ozonolysis of isobutylene?
The products are Acetone CH3-CO-CH3 and Formaldehyde CH2O.
What is a more stable atom between lithium and gold?
Gold is more stable.
What is Polyisobutyle?
Polyisobutylene is a synthetic polymer made from isobutylene. It is used in various applications such as adhesives, sealants, and lubricants due to its good sealing and adhesive properties.
What is the name for the monomer used to make polybutene?
The monomer used to make polybutene is isobutylene. It undergoes polymerization to form the long chain polymer known as polybutene.
What gas starts with the letter I?
Isobutylene

When atoms combine to form compound do they become more stable or less stable?
More stable
What is a more stable atom between lithium and gold?
Gold is more stable.
Does BHT come from a pig?
sorta kinda. It is synthesized from 2 organic chemicals. P-cresol (from sweat) and Isobutylene. (from gasoline)
How stable is the UK?
A t least as stable as, say, the USA or Canada, if not more stable. More stable than Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Congo. But not as stable as Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, Qatar.
Which is more stable three legs or four?
Three legs are more stable than 4 legs.
Do atoms that are stable need more electrons?
no. if the atom is stable it does not need to form any more compounds
Is the Euro a stable currency?
More stable than the US dollar.
How can nitrogen become more chemically stable?
Nitrogen is sufficiently stable.
Are atoms more stable when combined?
No. They combine when the compound is more stable. Any system will tend to go toward a more stable state. If a molecule is less stable than the individual atoms there is a good chance it will fall apart.
