Molecular model of hydrogen chloride
Hydrogen chloride. Molecular model of hydrogen chloride (hydrochloric acid). The white sphere represent an atom of hydrogen. The green sphere represents an atom of chlorine. The two atoms are held together by a single bond. Hydrogen chloride is a colourless gas with an irritating smell. It is highly soluble and dissolves to form hydrochloric acid. Hydrogen chloride is produced during the chlorination of hydrocarbons, by burning hydrogen in chlorine and in the reaction between sodium chloride and sulphuric acid. Gaseous hydrogen chloride and hydrochloric acid are widely used in the organic chemistry industry

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a molecular model of hydrogen chloride, also known as hydrochloric acid. The intricate representation features a white sphere symbolizing an atom of hydrogen and a green sphere representing an atom of chlorine. These two atoms are firmly connected by a single bond, forming the compound. Hydrogen chloride is characterized as a colorless gas with a pungent smell that can be quite irritating. Notably soluble in water, it readily dissolves to create hydrochloric acid. This versatile substance finds its origins through various processes such as chlorination of hydrocarbons, burning hydrogen in chlorine, and the reaction between sodium chloride and sulphuric acid. Widely utilized within the organic chemistry industry, both gaseous hydrogen chloride and hydrochloric acid play vital roles in numerous applications. However, it's important to note that this caption does not mention any commercial use or affiliation with any specific company. The molecular model captured in this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate the complexity and elegance found within chemical structures while highlighting the significance of hydrogen chloride in scientific research and industrial practices.
