orthoformic acid looks quite different from this

Looks unstable to me. Looks like the Oxygen wants that H

I don't know about methanetriol, but sodium is real.

Kill yourself you stupid faggot. Also, it would be extremely unstable, since those oxygens would not want to be that close to each other.

>>9363784
you're right that it is orthoformic acid

but the instability of closely proximal hydroxyl groups is well described. see: adenosine triphosphate

i agree with >>9363284

Even though methandiol is more stable in aqueous solution than formaldehyde, it is believed that even if methantriol were to be isolated it would readily decompose into water and methanoic acid.

No such thing exists. I think you meant to write natrium
