HCL is the conjugate acid pair of Cl. And Cl is the conjugate base pair of HCl.
Cl- is the negative chlorine ion is its neither acidic or alkaline. H+(aq)Cl-(aq) is Hydrochloric acid a common labrtory acid
They do not react based on hard-soft acid base theory. Na+ is a hard acid, Cl-is a hard base, and even if I-were formed, it's a soft base and therefore would not replace Cl-in sodium chloride.
The simplest way to answer this is to say that water can act as an acid or a base - giving up a proton (H+) or taking one. When put with an acid, it acts as a base and therefore accepts the proton from the acid. acid + base <---> acid + base HCl + H2O <---> Cl- + H3O+
It is an Acid. For the acid, Hydrochloric Acid, its formula is HCl. When it breaks apart its H+ and Cl-A base would be Sodium Hydroxide, which is NaOH, in this case it breaks apart as Na+ OH-
HCL is the conjugate acid pair of Cl. And Cl is the conjugate base pair of HCl.
The anion from an acid is Cl- and the cation from a base is Na+.

Hydrochloric acid
Neither, it's a salt.
CaCl2 -----> Ca2+ Cl-it is a salt
Sodium Chloride (Na+Cl-) is neither an acid nor a base. It is a neutral salt of Sodium & Chlorine having ionic bond between each Na+ & Cl- ion.

The conjugate base and conjugate acid for HS04 is: Conjugate acid is H2SO4 Conjugate base is SO42
Cl- in aqueous solution is neutral, but according to Lewis theory it is base because it is electron donor. you can learn more on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases
