CH2O2, called Formic Acid, is made up of the elements Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen. Carbon is the central atom on which Oxygen and Hydrogen are bonded. Occurring between Carbon and one Oxygen is a double bond, and single bonds occur between Carbon and Hydrogen, Carbon and the second Oxygen and Oxygen and Hydrogen. The molecule's Ax form is Ax3 so the molecule is triangular planar; the angles are 120 degrees.
