Formic Acid and Sodium Hydroxide

HCOOH + NaOH → HCOONa + H2O

개요

Formic acid, the simplest carboxylic acid, reacts with sodium hydroxide to form sodium formate and water. Formic acid (Ka = 1.8 × 10⁻⁴) is about 10 times stronger than acetic acid. It was originally obtained by distillation from ants (Latin: formica).
