Zinc Formate is formed and hydrogen gas is given off
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
When zinc reacts with formic acid, it forms zinc formate and hydrogen gas. This is a single-replacement reaction in which the more reactive zinc displaces hydrogen from the formic acid molecule. Zinc formate is a salt and the hydrogen gas is released as a byproduct.
