Answer Option (ii). 1 mole of Formic Acid.

Solution ⇒

Chemical formula of the ethanol = C₂H₅OH
1 mole of the Ethanol contains 1 mole of the Oxygen atoms.

Chemical formula of the formic acid = CH₂O₂
From the formula,
1 mole of the Formic acid contains 2 mole of the Oxygen atoms. 

Chemical Formula of the Water = H₂O
From the formula, 
1 mole of the H₂O contains 1 mole of the Oxygen atoms.


Now, we can see that Formic acid contains the highest no. of the moles of the atoms.

Hence, Option (ii). is correct.


Hope it helps.
