On the characteristics of hydrofluoric acid
Hydrofluoric acid is very different from ordinary acid. It is highly corrosive, although it is a weak acid, the etching force is quite huge. In case of various objects, it can often play a role.
The boiling point of hydrofluoric acid is higher than that of other similar hydrides. It can form hydrogen bonds between molecules, resulting in a large increase in the attractive force between molecules, so it requires more energy to boil.
And hydrofluoric acid in water, the ionization constant is not large, but it erodes glass, ceramics and other silicon-containing materials, especially. This is because silicon and fluorine have strong affinity, and the reaction can produce volatile silicon tetrafluoride.
And hydrofluoric acid is very toxic. It touches the skin and can deeply etch into the body, damage the muscles and bones, and harm the organs and endanger life when entering the body.
When handling hydrofluoric acid, you must be careful. Protective equipment should be prepared, and it should be done in a well-ventilated place. If you accidentally touch it, rinse it with water as soon as possible and seek medical treatment. These are the important characteristics of hydrofluoric acid, and those who use it must not know it.
