Solution

The correct option is B 9
Enthalpy of hydrogenation of ethylene= 132kJ/mol
Enthalpy related to hydrogenation of one C=C is 132kJ/mol .
Calculated enthalpy of hydrogenation of 1,3butadiene=2×(132)=264kJ/mol
Now, resonance energy of 1,3butadiene=ΔHexpectedΔHactual
=264(115140)
=9
Resonance energy= 9kJ/mol
