Answer:

HOOCCH=CHCOOH

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

Maleic acid is a butenedioic acid in which the double bond has cis- (Z)-configuration. It has a role as a plant metabolite, an algal metabolite and a mouse metabolite. On the attached document, you will the see maleic acid's structure by showing its lone electrons in order to accomplish the octates for both carbons and oxygens.

Best regards.
