Explanation:

Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is commonly used for the neutralization of alkaline agents, as a bleaching agent, in food, textile, metal, and rubber industries. It is neutralized if released into the soil and it rapidly hydrolyzes when exposed to water. Transport through soil may contaminate groundwater and will dissolve some of the soil materials. Exposure to HCl gas or solutions of HCl may cause eye irritation and permanent damage with loss of sight. Dermal exposure may cause burns. Inhalation of HCl immediately causes severe irritation with cough and choking sensation. HCl is not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans.
