No, Fehling's Test will have no reaction with Formic Acid
HCOOH + 2CuSO4 + 4NaOh ---> no Reaction
Formic acid gives positive result in both tollen's test and fehlings test. but acetic acid doesnot.
Chemical formula for formic acid is HCOOH. It is an organic acid compound. Formic acid is colorless.
An ants sting is Formic Acid
No, CH2O is formaldehyde and is not formic acid. HCOOH is formic acid. The key to the answer is that formaldehyde has only one oxygen but formic acid has two in its carboxylate group.
Formic acid is methanoic acid. A carboxylic acid.
Formic acid gives positive result in both tollen's test and fehlings test. but acetic acid doesnot.
I think you are referring to the test using Fehlings solution. Fehlings solution oxidises aldehydes and ketones and formic acid and is in turn reduced. The red precipitate is the copper(I) oxide formed by reduction of the copper(II) complex found in Fehlings solution. Acetic acid is not readily oxidised and so there is no precipitate. See link for more information on what the complex is in Fehlings solution and how it is prepared.
Formic acid (HCOOH - methanoic acid) also gives a positive Fehling's test result. This is because it is readily oxidizable to carbon dioxide and water.

First of all, Ants do not bite. They sting using the needle at the back of their abdomen.Ant sting usually contain Formic Acid.

methanol we can get formic acid
formic acid
Acetic acid is stronger than formic acid.
