Which noble gas electron structures do the atoms in a molecule of hydrogen chloride attain?

In a molecule of hydrogen chloride (HCl), the hydrogen atom attains a noble gas electron structure by sharing its electron with the chlorine atom, which attains a noble gas structure through the addition of the shared electron. The resulting electron structure mimics that of a noble gas (helium for hydrogen and argon for chlorine), fulfilling the octet rule for both atoms.
