The clue is in the name. Hydro = hydrogen, Chlor = chlorine, "ide" at the end means it is a compound of only these two things.
Therefore hydrochloric acid has the formula HCl.
----
Actually, Hydrochloride acid doesn't exist.
Its proper name is Hydrochloric acid.
When Hydrogen (H+) is the cation of a compound, you will always be dealing with an acid.
Chlorine (Cl-) is the anion of this compound.
No subscripts are needed because the oxidation numbers cancel each other out and leave an overall number of 0, leaving you with the final formula of HCl
