Explanation:
In HI iodine is less electronegative and it has large size. Therefore bonding between hydrogen and iodide is weaker. It will easily split in comparision of HF. Due to more liberation of H+ ions HI is stronger acid.

Answer:
Bond strength is related to the length of the bond, and because Iodine has a much larger atomic radius than Fluorine, HI has a much longer, and therefore weaker, bond. The hydrogen is removed fairly easily, making HI a stronger acid.
