Assuming you mean HF (hydrogen fluoride) Oh, YES - it is quite acidic. When HF is dissolved in water it forms hydrofluoric acid - which can etch glass!

Why is the net ionic equation for hf and koh this hf aq plus oh aq yields h2o l plus f- aq and not h plus aq plus oh- aq yields h2o l and why is f in hf a spectator ion in other aq reactions?

From what I've been told, because HF is a weak acid and therefore a weak electrolyte you are not supposed to break it up into cations and anions. Not sure how you would be getting F- as a spectator in other aq reactions, unless there's an extra rule that I simply haven't been taught.

What is the balanced ionic equations for CuSO4 plus H2O reactions?

These are some possible ionic equation for CuSO4 plus H2O: Cu2+ + 6 H2O --> Cu(H2O)6 Cu(H2O)62+ + H2O <--> Cu(OH)(H2O)5+ + H3O+ This makes a solution of copper sulfate weakly acidic.
