    Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.1, and chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0. The electron pair that is bonding HCl together shifts toward the chlorine atom because it has a larger electronegativity value.

    Explanation:

    The larger the difference in the electronegativities, the more negative and positive the atoms become.
