Telling Formic Acid From Acetic Acid
The formic acid molecule has a hydrogen atom on its carboxyl carbon, so it reduces Tollens’ reagent to a silver mirror and decolourises acidified potassium permanganate; acetic acid does neither. Both acids fizz with sodium hydrogencarbonate and give off carbon dioxide, the general test for a carboxylic acid.
The name comes from the Latin formica, ant, as the acid was first obtained by distilling ants.
