A mixture of formic acid and oxalic acid...

A mixture of formic acid and oxalic acid is heated with concentrated `H_(2)SO_(4)`. The gas evolved is collected and treated with KOH solution. The volume of the solution decreases by 1/6 th of its original volume. Find the molar ratio of the two acids in the original mixture.
