Because hydrogen and chlorine have a difference of electronegativity 0.9, chlorine is more electronegative so shared electron pair is more closer to chlorine and it acquires partially negative charge.

Which type of bonding is formed by HCl?
Hydrogen chloride (diatomic molecule) has a polar covalent bond.
Is glucose soluble in hydrochloric acid?
Yes, glucose is a polar molecule that is able to dissolve in aqueous HCl.
Which electron dot diagram represents a polar molecule?
No following, but this is a polar molecule, H2O water Slightly negatively charged on the oxygen end and slightly positively charged on the hydrogen end. Neutral overall.
Will hydrogen chloride gas (HCl) dissolve in water Explain why.?
Hydrogen chloride, or hydrochloric acid (HCl), has two atoms, hydrogen and chlorine. The strengths these atoms have on the nearby electrons are quite different, ie they have different electronegativities. This therefore means that one atom has a stronger pull on the electrons than the other. This is known as a polar molecule. Water (H2O) is also a polar molecule, and when two polar chemicals are mixed, they will dissolve, so the HCl will full delocalise, and become two separate H+ and Cl- ions.
Is A polar molecule an ion?
No a molecule is a molecule, polar or nonpolar.

Is hydrogen chloride a nonpolar molecule?
I think you mean HCl and Cl (with an L). HCl is polar because there is a difference in electronegativity between hydrogen (H) and chlorine (Cl). Cl on its own is a single atom and is not bonded to anything for there to be a difference in electronegativity. Cl2 is nonpolar because there is no difference in electronegativity between atoms of the same element.
Who is the most polar molecule between HCl and water?
Water is more polar because O has an electronegativity value of 3.5 whereas Cl has value of 3.0
Why does hexane not form a solution with water?
Water is a polar molecule (is a dipole, has a positive end and a negative end), hexane is a non-polar molecule. Like dissolves like. Water will dissolve other polar molecules, like HCl and NH3. Hexane will dissolve non-polar molecules like benzene or toluene.
