$H C l$ $HCl$ is a Bronsted Lowry acid.

Explanation:

The autoionization of water may be represented in the following way:

$2 H_{2} O ⇌ H_{3} O^{+} + H O^{-}$ $2H_2O rightleftharpoonsH_3O^+ + HO^-$

$K_{w} = [H_{3} O^{+}] [H O^{-}] = 10^{- 14} at 298K$ $K_(w)=[H_3O^+][HO^-]=10^(-14)" at 298K"$

Under non-standard conditions, e.g. $T = 350 K$ $T=350K$ , how do you think the equilibrium constant would evolve? Would it increase, decrease, stay the same? Remember that, as written, the given equilibrium is a bond-breaking reaction.
