When any carboxylic acid is place in water, hydrogen ion transfer occurs to produce hydronium ion and carboxylate ion. ( R-COOH + H20 = H30 + R-COO- ) So formic acid with the addition of water is HCOOH + H20 = H30 + HCOO-

What is the common name of Formic acid?
Formic Acid is the archaic common name. Its modern IUPAC name is Methanopic Acid. The formula is HCOOH
What is the chemical formula of the formic acid?
The chemical formula of formic acid is HCO2H or HCOOH. In this formula, the two hydrogens are not written combined as H2CO2 to distinguish the acidic hydrogen from the non-acidic hydrogen. Formic acid has only one acidic hydrogen and it is the one is that is attached to the oxygen. The hydrogen that appears first in the formula is not acidic. Pushpa Padmanabhan
