Hi !

We know that ,

Acid + Metal ----> Salt + Hydrogen gas (H₂)

so ,
when zinc(metal) react with HCl , Zinc Chloride(salt) is formed and hydrogen gas is liberated.

Zn + 2HCl ---> ZnCl₂ + H₂         [ balanced equation ]

This reaction is an example of single displacement reaction.
Also , this reaction is an eg: of redox reaction .
