Sep 22, 2015 at 18:40 comment added K_P How do you plan to store the $\ce {HCl}$ gas you produce? In a balloon? (Don't!) Use $\ce{H2SO4}+\ce{NaCl}$ as Ivan mentioned. It is a method that is used in practice in a professional lab if an HCl lecture bottle is not handy.
Sep 22, 2015 at 17:47 comment added Ivan Neretin I don't think it will work without platinum. Really, there are easier chemical ways to HCl (I mentioned one in the previous comment).
Sep 22, 2015 at 17:42 comment added John K Electrolysis is the source. Performing in small amounts in a fume hood. I will try the method with the galvanic cell
Sep 22, 2015 at 17:39 comment added Ivan Neretin Wait, you just asked something about electrolysis - is that your source of hydrogen and chlorine? Are you going to run it at home? Not on a large scale, I hope? Remember that hydrogen in explosive, and both chlorine and HCl are quite poisonous if inhaled. I don't want to be responsible for anyone's death. Again, HCl is easier to buy or make from $\ce{H2SO4}+\ce{NaCl}$.
Sep 22, 2015 at 17:32 comment added John K In the first paragraph, is it like in the shape of "We will let you use our galvanic cell"? I would like HCl gas for creation of concentrated hydrochloric acid.
