Nothing happens to the hydrogen atom in HCl until it is placed in H2O, and then the HCl ionizes completely to give rise to H3O+ (hydronium ion) and Cl^- (chloride anion).

How many elements are in hci?

HCI is Hydrogen (H), Carbon (C) and Iodine (I). Therefore, you have three elements in one molecule of HCI. Although, HCI is not balanced, so, that would actually be an ion, with negative charge.


Is HCI tetrahedral?

No, HCI is not tetrahedral. The molecular shape of hydrogen chloride (HCl) is linear due to the two atoms in the molecule. A tetrahedral shape would have four atoms bonded to a central atom.


What have you made if you use balls to explain the structure of a molecule?

If you use balls to explain the structure of a molecule you have made a model.


What kind of bond is HCI?

Ionic bond between H+ ions and I- ions in HI molecule.


Explain the difference between molecule and formula unit?

The formula unit is the representation of a molecule.


Is HCI partial negstive charge?

No, HCI (hydrochloric acid) is a polar molecule that consists of a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom. The chlorine atom is more electronegative than the hydrogen atom, creating a partial negative charge on the chlorine atom and a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom.

How do you tell if a reaction is blalanced?

if there is the same number of atoms on both sides e.g Mg + HcI-------------> Mg + HcI^2 (HcI squared) this is an unbalanced reaction because there is more chlorine on the right side than the left side. so when you balance the equation it will look like this: MG + HcI^2------------------>Mg +HcI^2
