Which statement is false regarding hydrofluoric acid (HF)? NaF is a source of HF when dissolved in water.   HF can be toxic if spilled on your skin because if it penetrates to your bones, it will react with the calcium ions to form CaF2.   The corrosive property of HF is a sign that it is a strong acid.   HF will react with glass (SiO2) to produce water.
