CAS No.: 64-18-6
Molecular Formula: CH2O2 Molecular Weight：46.02
Property:
Formic acid is miscible with water and most polar organic solvents, and somewhat soluble in hydrocarbons. In hydrocarbons and in the vapor phase,
Formic acid actually consists of hydrogen-bonded dimers rather than individual molecules. In the gas phase, this hydrogen-bonding results in severe deviations from the ideal gas law. Liquid and solid
formic acid consists of an effectively endless network of hydrogen-bonded formic acid molecules.
