3 Is a weak acid nearly three and a half time weaker than acetic acid
4 Is prepared by heating potassium hydroxide
Explanation:
ALDEHYDES, KETONES AND CARBOXYLIC ACID

Given below are some statements concerning formic acid, which of them is true
1 It is a weaker acid than acetic acid
2 It is a reducing agent
3 When its calcium salt is heated, it forms a ketone
4 It is an oxidising agent
Explanation:
If a compound gets oxidized (as formic acid can), then another compound has to be reduced. The compound that gets oxidized is called a reducing agent. It reduces Tollen's reagent to silver mirror. Formic acid acts as a reducing agent as it can reduce Tollen's reagent, Fehling solution, mercuric chloride and \(KMnO _4\) etc.
