Is HCI a strong acid or a weak acid?

Answer 1

Hydrogen chloride by itself is a pungent diatomic molecule that exists in gaseous state, so it is not acidic as a gas. However, when exposed to water, it readily forms hydrochloric acid, which is a very strong acid with a pH of -7.0.

Answer 2

You're looking for HCl (and "L", not an "i") Which is Hydrochloric Acid and is a strong electrolyte because 99.998% of it will dissociate (break apart into H+ and Cl-) in water.

Answer 3

There is no such thing as HCI in chemistry.

HCl (with a lowercase L) is molecular.

Answer 4

HCL, or hydrochloric acid, is a strong acid. One of its purposes is to be generated in your stomach where it starts to digest food.

Answer 5

HCl would be an acid, if placed in water. As HCl alone, it is a gas, but when placed in water it becomes hydrochloric acid.

Answer 6

HCI is a strong acid. It ionizes completely in water to produce a high concentration of hydrogen ions.

Answer 7

Hydrochloric acid is an acid.

Answer 8

Hydrochloric acid
