Q

Give the 1st method by which HCl can be prepared.

A
  1. Moist Hydrogen gas combines with chlorine in the presence of diffused sunlight.

H2 + Cl2 —> (Diffused sunlight) 2 HCl (gas)

  1. The reaction is explosive in direct sunlight and negligible in the dark.
  2. Moisture acts as a catalyst in the above synthesis reaction.
  3. Burning jet of hydrogen also burns in chlorine forming hydrogen chloride.
