If you mean hydrogen fluoride, that depends on how much you're exposed to at once. The first rule of toxicology is that the dose makes the poison. That being said, the lethal dose at which 50% of test animals die of HF exposure is about 1.3 grams per kilogram of body weight in rats when consumed orally. HF is generally classified as "very toxic" and "corrosive", and is considered an extreme occupational hazard for anyone who works with it.

What is an HF molecule?
HF is the hydrid of fluorine, or fluoride of the hydrogen. the acid which can't be stored in the glass tares, because this compound reacts with the SiO2. Extremely dangerous.
26 equals b in a HF?
This is a DitloidThe answer is 26 Bones in a Human Foot.
Is hydrofluoric acid soluble in water?
Yes, it certainly is. In fact, most commercial HF comes as a solution of 40 wt% HF in 60% H2O. Pure HF would be a gas at ambient pressure and temperature (similar to HCl). Please be aware that HF is really one of the most dangerous substances you can encounter in a usual lab.
How is Hf related to the H of a reaction?
The Hreaction is the difference between Hf, products and Hf, reactants
Is HF acid?
No, it is not ionic. HF is covalent.
What is the compound HF?
HF is hydrogen fluoride.
Is it dangerous to human health?
I am not sure the question you are to ask, but there are many things that are hazardous and dangerous to human health.
How does the Hreaction relate to the Hf of molecules involved in a reaction?
Hreaction = Hf, products - Hf, reactants
What is the most dangerous industrial acid?
All concentrated industrial acids (HCl, H2SO4, HNO3, etc.) are extremely dangerous and can cause extreme injury. But I guess the MOST dangerous would be hydrofluoric acid (HF). The reason is that HF can penetrate the skin and get into your blood, where the F- reacts irreversibly with your plasma calcium to form CaF2 (which is insoluble) This quickly makes you hypocalcemic. This leads to muscle spasms, tetany, and eventually cardiac arrest. I think an HF burn on your body that is as big as your palm print could kill you, or something like that. Other acids can give you pretty serious burns, but aren't as likely to kill you.
What is the formula for the hydrofluoric acid?
The formula for hydrofluoric acid is HF.HF - one atom hydrogen bonded to one atom fluorine.Oh...never call it "hydrofluoric acid." Always call it HF. "Hydrofluoric" and "hydrochloric" sound an awful lot alike, but HF is far more dangerous - deadly, in fact.
