(N/A) The stability of alkenes is primarily determined by the number of alkyl groups attached to the double-bonded carbons (hyperconjugation) and steric hindrance. The general order of stability is: $R_2C=CR_2 > R_2C=CHR > RCH=CHR \text{ (trans)} > R_2C=CH_2 > RCH=CHR \text{ (cis)} > RCH=CH_2 > CH_2=CH_2$.
