Best Answer

Hydrochloric acid is very natural, since that is the kind of acid that is in our stomachs.

Muriatic acid is a very old name, from the middle age, now obsolete. The correct systematic name is hydrogen chloride. Another synonym is hydrochloric acid. In nature the hydrogen chloride is a component of volcano gases and of...gastric acids.
