Answer:

1-butene

Explanation:

when an alkene reacts with hot KMnO4 the double is bond is attacked and ruptured in a process called oxidative cleavaging ,. Therefore we will have two products due to the split . If a carbon is bonded atom  to another carbon a caboxylic acid is formed and if not bonded to any other carbon atom cabon dioxide is formed . Hence the position of the doubl bond in 1- butene allows for such a situation to be created
