1.Concentrated hydrochloric acid when kept in open air sometimes produces a cloud of white fumes. The explanation for it is thata.oxygen in air reacts with the emitted HClHClHCl gas to form a cloud of chlorine gasb.strong affinity of HClHClHCl gas for moisture in air results in forming of droplets of liquid solution which appears like a cloudy smoke.c.due to strong affinity for water, concentrated hydrochloric acid pulls moisture of air towards itself. This moisture forms droplets of water and hence the cloud.d.concentrated hydrochloric acid emits strongly smelling HClHClHCl gas all the time.Login to continueOnly logged in users canattempt or see the solution.
