2 hcooh + o2 -> 2h2o + 2 co2
Chemical formula for formic acid is HCOOH. It is an organic acid compound. Formic acid is colorless.
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.
Ants and some other stinging insects release formic acidwhen they bite. Some plants, such as nettles, also release formic acid when touched.
The balanced equation for the complete combustion of formic acid (HCOOH) is: 2 HCOOH(l) + 3 O2(g) → 2 CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l)
