Hydrogenation of alkene is governed by the fact stearic hinderance. Smaller the alkyl-R group lesser will be the stearic hinderance.Thus in option (a) alkyl -R gp on the same side,soit react fast.

a) will react fastest becoz alkyl group always give +i effect so electron density increases more in case of a) and not in b) c) and d) as the repulsion between electrons increases , R is present both sides...
