If Hydrogen gas is chemically combined with Chlorine gas, Hydrogen chloride is formed:

H2 (g) + Cl2 (g) ---> 2 HCl (g)

The bond is covalent (the atoms share electrons) and polar (Chlorine is more electronegative).

Hydrogen chloride gas will dissolve in water and disassociate into ions:

HCl ---> H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
