Because in order for a solution to conduct electricity, it must be an electrolyte - that is, it must contain free ions (charged particles). HCl, or hydrochloric acid, dissolves freely in water, with its ionic bonds releasing to create H+ and Cl- ions in solution. This happens because Hydrogen is able to release its electron, and Chlorine has a high affinity for electrons,
hope it helped dear : )
