The correct option is B False
The trans isomer of 2−butene is exactly 1.0 kcal/mol more stable than the cis isomer because of a steric effect. That is, in the cis−but−2−ene, one of the hydrogens on one methyl group is closer to a hydrogen on the second methyl group than the sums of the van der Waals radii of two hydrogen atoms makes it less stable.
