Cis-Trans Isomerism in Maleic Acid by ScribdTranslations is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This report describes an experiment on the cis-trans isomerism of maleic and fumaric acid. The objectives are presented to understand and illustrate geometric isomerism in alkenes and to corroborate the isomerization and properties of the reactants and products. The results show the conversion of maleic anhydride to cis maleic acid and then to trans fumaric acid through acid-base reactions catalyzed by HCl. The conclusions indicate that the objectives were met by...
