In covalent bond the atoms combine to achieve an octet of valence electrons by sharing electrons. In HCl one electron each is shared by Hydrogen

Answer:

Explanation:

when HCl dissolves in water, its components dissociate into H+ ions and Cl- ions when the covalent bond is broken between them. Water molecules are polar with oxygen atoms negatively charged and the hydrogens positively charged. This helps make water an excellent solvent for polar compounds like HCl due to the attraction of opposite charges.
