Water is a polar molecule and hexane is non-polar. This means that water has positive charges that grab on to the negative-chlorine and water has negative charges that grab onto the positive-hydrogen. This pulls the hydrogen and chlorine apart as positive and negative ions. The these positive and negative ions can move around separately as positive and negative electrical carriers.
In hexane the hydrogen and chlorine are locked together, a single neutral molecule and no charged ions. Any positive movement of the hydrogen is locked to the negative movement of the chlorine, so any movement balances out to zero charge movement and zero electrical movement.
Assuming that the question is asking if hydrogen chloride is soluble in water, yes. Hydrogen chloride, when dissolved in water, becomes Hydrochloric acid.
when hydrogen chloride is dissolved in water to form hydrochloric acid, the hydrogen chloride turns to HCL subscript 38 because of the water molecules. i also believe that they change from clear to a misty green colour but it may just be the result of a dirty test tube.
Hydrogen Chloride, a colorless gas.
For electricity to be conducted charge transfer should take place between two oppositely charged ends and charge transfer can take place only through movement of charged particles( free electrons or ions). In case of Hydrogen chloride gas hydrogen and chlorine atom have strong covalent bond between themselves so they don't separate to form ions.Hydrogen chloride gas molecules don't have free electrons either. So it is obvious that hydrogen chloride gas is not a good conductor of electricity.Note: aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride in water is a good conductor as hydrogen chloride separates into hydrogen cation(H+ ) and chloride anion(Cl- ).
The compound formed when hydrogen and chlorine combine is hydrogen chloride, with formula HCl. In pure form, this compound has highly polar covalent bonds, but when dissolved in water, the compound ionizes.
To conduct electricity, the substance should contain free moving ions. In anhydrous hydrogen chloride, both hydrogen ions(positively charged) and chloride ions (negatively charged) are held by the electrostatic forces of attraction. Due to the non-availability of the free moving ions in anhydrous hydrogen chloride, it does not conduct electricity. But if it is dissolved in water, electrostatic forces of attraction can be removed, and free moving hydrogen and chloride ions are formed in the solution. This leads to conduct dc electricity.
Hydrochloric acid is hydrogen chloride dissolved in water.
Hydrogen chloride is a gas at room temperature, hydrochloric acid is hydrogen chloride gas dissolved in water.
No.

Water. Hydrochloric acid is just hydrogen chloride gas dissolved in pure water.
Hydrogen Chloride, a colorless gas.
This is an ionic compound dissociated in water.
Pure hydrogen chloride is molecular. But Hydrochloric acid is hydrogen chloride dissolved in molecules. In this state it exists as ions rather than molecules.
Hydrochloric acid is prepared by dissolving hydrogen chloride gas in water. Hydrogen chloride is a covalent compound, but when dissolved in water it ionizes to form hydrogen ions and chloride ions as follows: By Kuldeep K. bansal INDIA
Not quite. Hydrogen chloride is a gas it only becomes hydrochloric acid when it is dissolved in water. The maximum amount of HCl gas that can dissolve in water is about 36.5%.
