Which statement is true about hci? a- it is a salt because it increases the concentration of metallic ions. b- it is a salt because it is formed by the reaction of an acid and a base. c- it is an acid because it increases the concentration of hydroxyl ions. d- it is an acid because it increases the concentration of hydronium ions.

d- it is an acid because it increases the concentration of hydronium ions

Explanation:

HCl; hydrochloric acid is an acid because it increases the concentration of hydronium ions when in solutions.

An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions H₃O⁺ in an aqueous solution.

For example:

               HCl + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻

HCl is classified as a strong acid due to its complete ionization when in solutions.
