Start by converting the 234 g of fluorine to moles.

234g / 38 g = 6.15 moles #F_2# (38 g is the molar mass of #F_2#)

No take the moles of #F_2# and convert them to moles of HF by using the mole ratio from the balanced chemical equation.

6.15 moles #F_2# x 2 moles #HF# / 1 mole #F_2# = 12.30 moles #HF#

Now use Avogadro's value 22.4 L/mole at STP to convert moles to liters.

12.30 moles #HF# x 22.4 L / 1 mole = 275.52 L #HF#

I hope this was helpful.
