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.

Is HF a covalent molecule?
Yes! Polar covalent.
What does a negative Hf for molecule mean?
Energy was released when the molecule was formed from its elements
What chemical formula represent a diatomic molecule?
a diatomic molecule is a molecule with two atoms. so H2 is a diatomic molecule. HCl is also a diatomic molecule. C4H6 is not a diatomic molecule, because it has more then 2 atoms
Why hydrogen bond in water is stronger than in HF and NH3?
In HF molecule hydrogen bonding is the strongest. The reason is that the partial positively charged hydrogen atom is entrapped between the two highly electronegative fluorine atoms.
What are examples of molecule with argon?
At low temperatures in the presence of ultraviolet light, argon can bond with hydrogen fluoride (HF) to form argon fuorohydride (HArF)
Is HF a oxyacid?
HF is not an oxyacid; no oxygen in the molecule.
What is the molecule formula for hydroflouric acid?
HF is the formula.
Is HF a covalent molecule?
Yes! Polar covalent.
What does a negative Hf for molecule mean?
Energy was released when the molecule was formed from its elements
Because the electrons in a molecule of hydrogen fluoride (HF) are more strongly pulled toward the fluorine atom the molecule is nonpolar.?
That statement is incorrect. HF is a polar molecule because fluorine is more electronegative than hydrogen, causing the electron density to be pulled closer to the fluorine atom. As a result, HF has a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom and a partial negative charge on the fluorine atom.
Why PH3 and OF2 and HF are polar molecules?
due to the difference in the between the two atoms in the molecule
What chemical formula represent a diatomic molecule?
a diatomic molecule is a molecule with two atoms. so H2 is a diatomic molecule. HCl is also a diatomic molecule. C4H6 is not a diatomic molecule, because it has more then 2 atoms
What is the molecule geometry for HF?
since it has a total of two atoms , its molecular shape is linear with bond angles of 180 degree.
What is the polar molecule.?
if i believe it is HF but just subtract the electronegativies of the two elements in a multiple choice question
What is the formula equation hydrogen gas reacts with fluorine gas to produce hydrogen fluoride gas?
H2 + F2 -> 2HFhydrogen + fluorine -> hydrogen fluorideOne molecule of hydrogen reacts with one molecule of fluorine to produce two molecules of HF.
Why hydrogen bond in water is stronger than in HF and NH3?
In HF molecule hydrogen bonding is the strongest. The reason is that the partial positively charged hydrogen atom is entrapped between the two highly electronegative fluorine atoms.
Which has a higher boiling point HI or HF?
HF is electronegative compared to O2. HF has delta plus and delta minus creating a dipole moment, it is a polar molecule therefore it has a higher boiling point. O2 which is symmetrical and non polar (looks like O=O) and therefore has no dipole moment.
