Answer:
HCl is a polar molecule.
Explanation:
HCl is a polar covalent compound because...
in this H+ is a proton having electron affinity and having the tendency to gain the electron but Cl- is act like an anion and having tendency to donate the electron and Cl- is a electronegative atom and as the H+ comes close to Cl- anion then negative charge spreads and polarity begins according to Fazan's Rule and due to this two shared pair electrons of Cl- make the covalent bond with H+ (both the electrons in covalent bond is from Cl- atom.
thank you
