Re: 4.5

Since the lewis dot structure show a lone pair on the Cl there will be a repulsion from the lone pair causing a 120 degree bent shape.

Re: Pi bond

Yes because the double bond does not allow rotation as it would break.

Re: Hybridization

Hybridization is not a bond necessarily, rather a model for how atomic orbitals of different energies fuse to form bonding orbitals

Re: Hydrogen bonding

Hydrogen bonds occur due to the highly electro negative atoms interacting with hydrogens electrons

Re: melting points

NaCl has a ionic as opposed to a covalent bond which is stronger that HCl and there for melts at a higher temp
