Formic acid is stonger than acetic acid?
yes formic acid is stronger than acetic acid.
How do you distinguish between acetic acid and formic acid?
Formic acid gives positive result in both tollen's test and fehlings test. but acetic acid doesnot.
What are the differences between formic acid and acetic acid as buffer in LC-MS?
Formic acid is generally considered to have lower contamination levels than acetic acid, especially metal ions. Formic acid is slightly more volatile and less smelly! -DN
Formic acid and chloroacetic acid stonger acid than acetic acid?
the lack of steric hindarance in formic acid and the inductive effect of chlorine in chloroacetic acid
Does formic acid fehling's test?
No, Fehling's Test will have no reaction with Formic Acid HCOOH + 2CuSO4 + 4NaOh ---> no Reaction

Why formic acid is stronger acid than acetic acid?
Hydrochloric acid, HCl
Why formic acid is stronger than acetic acid?
As we know that acetic acid is CH3 substituted formic acid .since CH3 is an electron donating relative to hydrogen .so, it donates the electron to carboxyl group and makes it more negative. this phenomenon makes acetic acid weaker acid than formic acid .Thus formic acid is stronger acid than acetic acid.

Acetic acid is the simplest carboxylic acid?
No, Acetic acid (ethanoic acid, CH3COOH) is the second simplest. Methanoic acid (formic acid) is the simplest with the formula HCOOH.
