Can you put a glass jar on the stove?
No, you should not put a glass jar directly on the stove. Glass can crack or shatter when exposed to direct heat, which can be dangerous.

Always check the manufacturer's instructions for specific guidelines on heat exposure.
Why HF is highly reactive toward the glass?
Hydrofluoric acid (HF) is highly reactive toward glass because it can dissolve silica (SiO2), a primary component of glass. The fluoride ions in HF react with the silicon atoms in silica, forming soluble silicon tetrafluoride (SiF4) and leading to the degradation of the glass structure. This reaction makes HF particularly dangerous when handling glass containers, as it can etch and damage them, releasing the acid.
