what toxic gas is given off when oxalic acid is heated ?
Oxalic acid undergoes ready decarboxylation on mild heating to give carbon monoxide,carbon dioxide and water(vapour).
yes, the oxalic acid would be the standard acid by which the base is titrated and the concentration determined. if the oxalic acid is 'around' 1M, that could mean anything
No. Oxalic acid is a weak acid.
the basisity of oxalic acid is dibasic acid
I believe it is necessary to rinse the conical flask with oxalic acid before use, unless you are sure that the conical flask is really clean and dry before use. However to prevent having any types of unwanted chemical reaction when you pour the oxalic acid in the flask, it is best to rinse it with oxalic acid before use, so that there will not be errors like e.g. there is no pinkish color formed in the solution when you add the color indicator in the oxalic acid when doing titration.

Oxalic acid is H2C2O4

no Oxalic acid is found in rhubarb
Oxalic acid can remove the rust due to its strong reducibility. The rust iron is ferric iron in the rusty spot, needless to dissolve into water. When touching oxalic acid, the ferric iron is reducted into bivalent iron which is dissolving in water. In addition, after using oxalic acid dihydrate to pickle ironmould on clothes, it is necessary to wash it with water a few times, not letting the excess of oxalic acid on clothes.

2 is the valency of oxalic acid
During redox titration oxalic acid is a covalent compound and can not accept oxygen easily from an oxidizing agent so heat is necessary to break down the covalent bonding.
It is an acid - Oxalic acid
