Why does the reaction \eqref{rxn:R1Q} take place, but the reaction \eqref{rxn:R2Q} does not?
$$
\begin{align}
\ce{HF(aq) + KF(aq) &-> KHF2(aq)}\label{rxn:R1Q}\tag{R1} \\
\ce{HCl(aq) + KCl(aq) &-> KHCl2}\label{rxn:R2Q}\tag{R2}
\end{align}
$$
I found that $\ce{[HF2]-}$ forms due to hydrogen bonding...
