Question

Formic acid, HCO2H, is a weak acid. Write a net ionic equation for the reaction of formic acid and aqueous potassium hydroxide.

HCOOH + KOH ==> H2O + HCOOK
is the molecular equation.
Now convert to the ions, cancel ions common to both sides and you will be left with the net ionic equation.
