Question

Mention the properties of both HCl gas & HCl Acid

Answer 1

Hey there....!!

The physical properties of HCl Gas are as follows :)

#1 Colour => Colourless Gas
#2 Smell => Pungent Choking Smell
#3 Taste => Sour In Taste
#4 Solubility => It is highly soluble in water
#5 Boiling Point => -83°C

The physical properties of HCl Acid are as follows :)

#1 Colour => Colourless
#2 Smell => Pungent Choking Smell
#3 Taste => Sour ( acidic )
#4 Solubility => Readily soluble in water in all proportions
#5 Boiling Point => 110°C ( volatile acid)

Important => Hydrogen Chloride Gas is formed as a result of chemical reactions. Such as,
2NaCl + H2SO4 => Na2SO4 + 2HCl

Whereas Hydrochloric Acid is formed when HCl Gas reacts with water.
