I read in the Guinness Book of Records that it is the strongest 
acid in the world being a mixture of antimony pentafluoride and 
hydrofluoric acid. Guinness also said it is 10(with an eighteen 
at the top right corner of the ten) times stronger than 
concentrated sulfuric acid.Thank you for your time.
