Yes. HF is a weak acid. The HF molecules are stabilized by hydrogen bonding. As such the H+ ions are not released easily and it behaves like a weak acid.

Is HF and KF a buffer?

No, HF and KF do not form a buffer solution because a buffer contains a weak acid and its conjugate base (or a weak base and its conjugate acid). HF and KF are both strong acids, so they cannot act as a buffer system.

Is a strong acid Noah NH3 HCl Hf?

No, NH3 (ammonia) is a weak base, not a strong acid. HCl (hydrochloric acid) and HF (hydrofluoric acid) are strong acids. Strong acids completely dissociate in water to produce H+ ions, while weak acids only partially dissociate.
