Due to the presence of hydrogen bonding in HF, the structure is converted to,

This can dissociate to give {tex} \mathrm{HF}_{2}^{-} {/tex} ion.
If we add K+ to {tex} \mathrm{HF}_{2}^{-} {/tex} ion, we get KHF2.
Due to the absence of hydrogen bonding in HCl, {tex} \mathrm{HCl}_{2}^{-} {/tex} ion is not formed.
Hence, KHCI2 does not exist.
Therefore, KHF2 exists but KHCl2 does not exist.
