B=2, But-1-ene and But-2-ene will give same alkane, i.e, n-Butane 2-Methylprop-1-ene will give 2-methylpropane

Q. An alkene $C_{4} H_{8}$ undergoes catalytic hydrogenation to give alkanes. How many different alkane are possible?
$(all isomers) C_{4} H_{8} (alkene) H_{2} N i (B)$ (exclude stereoisomer)

$B = 2$ ,
But- $1$ -ene and But- $2$ -ene will give same alkane, i.e, $n$ -Butane
$2$ -Methylprop- $1$ -ene will give $2$ -methylpropane
