What is the acid and base of 2hf caoh2-----caf2 2h2o?

2hf + caoh2 = CaF2 + 2H2O Acid is 'hf' ; hydrofluoric acid Base is 'caoh2' ; calcium hydroxide. NB When writing chemcial formula , single letter symbols are ALWAYS a CAPITAL letter. Two letter symbols are always ; first letter is a capital letter and the secons letter is small case. This is the internationally agreed standard. Otherwise confusion reigns. So 'hf' should be 'HF' (Hydrogen(H) and Fluorine(F) 'caoh"' should be 'Ca(OH)2' ( Calcium (Ca) , Oxygen (O) and Hydrogen (H)). The suffix '2' indicates that there are two hydroxide anions, which are shown in brackets. As written by yourself 'caoh2' indicates 1 x calcium , 1 x oxygen and 2 x hydrogen. Hope that helps for future reference!!!!
