Formic acid can be dehydrated to toxic and flammable carbon monoxide gas by inorganic acids (Reutemann, W. 2002. Formic Acid. In Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA. (Online)), including phosphoric anhydride (Urben, P.G. 1995. Bretherick's Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, 5th Ed. Oxford: Butterworth-Heinemann. Vol. 1, pp. 171).
Strong acids will endothermically decompose oxalic acid, forming the toxic and flammable gas carbon monoxide and inert CO2 gas (Riemenschneider, W. 2002. Oxalic Acid. In Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA. (Online)).
Potential Gas Byproducts
