Why is methanoic acid more acidic than benzoic acid?
We would certainly expect benzoic acid to be more acidic than methanoic acid, due to stabilisation of the benzoate anion caused by the delocalisation of the electrons on the oxygen atom over the benzene ring. However, in practice, it is found that methanoic acid is actually more acidic than benzoic acid(has a greater Ka value). This is because methanoic acid is more soluble in water than benzoic acid, so there is greater ionisation of methanoic acid in water than benzoic acid.
