An acid is neutralized by adding base to it as calamine solution neutralizes formic acid in a bee's sting when injected into a person's body.
Calamine is a mixture of zinc oxide (ZnO) with about 0.5% iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3), so it looks rather neutral to slightly basic. Both are amphoteric oxides.
The name of HF in solution is hydrofluoric acid.

When an acid solution is mixed with a basic solution, there will be a neutralization reaction in which hydrogen ions from the acid will combine with hydroxide ions from the base, to form water.
Calamine solution contains zinc carbonate and ant's sting contains Formic acid. The reaction between the acid and the base neutralises the effect of the sting.

stings and bites usually fill the swollen area with acid (ants-formic acid) therefore to ease the itching a neutralisation reaction is performed by applying basic solution over the swollen area (calamine)

no it doesn't.dissolving or making a solution of an acid makes a more dilute solution of the acid.

The presence of an acid lowers the pH of the solution in water.
HNO2 (aq) is nitrous acid in solution.
