Under the same conditions, which one, n-butylene or isobutylene, gets hydrogenated first?

Olefin saturation hydrogenation
There is no sequence to the reactions; only the rate at which they occur matters. It can be said that, under the same conditions, isobutylene reacts faster than n-butylene. This is just my personal opinion for reference only; any actions taken based on this will be at your own risk!
