hydrogen chloride is formed in a reaction between hydrogen and chlorine, the equation for the reaction is H2+Cl2-----2HCl,what type of bond does this molecule contain?
The hydrogen chloride molecule (HCl) contains a polar covalent bond. In this type of bond, electrons are shared between the hydrogen and chlorine atoms, but the electrons are not equally shared. The chlorine atom is more electronegative than the hydrogen atom, resulting in a partial negative charge (δ-) on the chlorine atom and a partial positive charge (δ+) on the hydrogen atom. This unequal distribution of charge leads to the formation of a polar covalent bond.
