Well there is no acid, I repeat N O ! A C I D ! (cf. discussion page), with the formula HCI (with elements H, C, and I) because:

  1. HCI is a chemically impossible compound, or at least never been synthesized
  2. If it where then it wouldn't be an acid, rather a iodine-substituted hydrocarbon

    H(4-n)CI(n) with n = 1, 2 or 3 which all are not water soluble.

  3. The chemical name of this NONexisting compound CHI would have been mono-iodine methane (CH3I is possible) or tri-iodine methane (CHI3 is possible).
