Answer:

hydrogen

Step-by-step explanation:

The combination between chlorine and hydrogen forms an explosive reaction. In fact, chlorine and hydrogen combine according to the following equation:


Cl_(2)_((g)) + H_(2)_((g)) = 2HCl_((g))

The reaction, when it takes place in a solution, that is, with water, results in fuming hydrochloric acid.
