  2. The pH of strong acids lies from1 to3.

  4. It is a mixture of hydrogen fluoride and antimony pentafluoride that contains a number of different cations and anions
  5. It has a pH of 20 quintillion times that of 100 percent sulfuric acid.
  6. This acid is used as a catalyst in biochemistry, gasoline production, and the production of synthetic materials.
  7. This acid is particularly damaging and corrosive because of the weak bond between hydrogen and fluorine.

Therefore, Fuloroantimonic is the strongest acid in the world.
