It has a rather sour odor to the point of being painful. The odor somewhat akin to that of some ants when they are disturbed.
Smelling HCl is not recommended as it is a very strong acid.
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a liquid at room temperature. It is a clear, colorless solution with a strong, pungent odor. Its liquid form is commonly used in various industrial processes.
A chemical change that is most likely to involve bubbling or an odor is the reaction between an acid and a base to produce water and a salt. For example, mixing hydrochloric acid (HCl) with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) produces water and sodium chloride (NaCl), with bubbling and a characteristic odor of the products.
8.3 grams HCl (1 mole HCl/36.458 grams) = 0.23 moles HCl ------------------------
1M HCl means there is 1 mole of HCl in 1 liter of solution. To convert to 1N HCl, you need to consider the equivalent weight of HCl, which is its molecular weight as it is a monoprotic acid. So, in this case, 1M HCl is equivalent to 1N HCl.
The chemical formula (not symbol) of hydrogen chloride is HCl; for a diluted solution you can use "HCl dil." but this isn't a standard formula.

Hydrogen chloride (HCl) exists as a gas before being dissolved in water. It is a colorless and highly corrosive gas with a strong acidic odor.
Muriatic Acid is a colorless aqueous solution and is the less pure (industrial) version of Hydrochloric Acid, with the formula HCl. It is also named spirits of salt or acidum salis, it has a “sharp, irritating odor”.

The symbol HCl stands for hydrochloric acid, which is a strong acid commonly used in chemical laboratories and industrial processes. It is a colorless, highly corrosive solution with a sharp, pungent odor.

HCl is liquid at standard temperature and pressure
1 m HCl is not more reactive than 4m HCl, but 4m HCl is more concentrated.
