Is F- acid or base?

Since F- is the conjugate base to the weak acid HF, it is a weak base.


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 HF and H a conjugate acid base pair?

Yes, HF and F- are a conjugate acid-base pair. HF is the acid, and when it donates a proton, it forms the conjugate base, F-. Conversely, F- can accept a proton to form HF, making them a conjugate pair.


What is a strong acid NaOH HF NH3 HCl?

HCl is a strong acid, while NaOH, HF, and NH3 are not strong acids. NaOH is a strong base, HF is a weak acid, and NH3 is a weak base.


Does HF have a strong base?

Yes, hydrofluoric acid (HF) is a weak acid, not a base. It is a weak acid because it dissociates partially in water to release hydrogen ions.


Is BaF2 a strong acid or base?

Barium fluoride can be considered to be the salt of barium hydroxide (a weak base) and HF (a strong acid). And a solution of BaF2 will be weakly acidic.

What is formed when an acid and a base is mixed?

when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.


What is the General equation for acid reacting with a base?

acid + base → salt + water


Can an acid and a base react to form an acid?

NO!!!! Remember the general acid reaction equations. Acid + Base = Salt +Water Acid +Alkali = Salt + Water Acid +Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soluble Base.


What is the general form for the simplest type of acid base reaction?

Acid + base salt + water
