Detailed Solution

 We are given:   Bond length of hydrogen molecule =0.074nm  Bond length of chlorine molecule =1.98=0.0198nm  (Conversion factor: 1nm=10)  To calculate the bond length of HCl, we use the formula:  lHCl=lH22+lCl22  Putting values in above equation, we get:   lHCl=0.0742+0.1982 lHCl=0.136nm Hence, the bond length ofHClis0.136nm.
