    Reaction of O₂ with HCl is as follow,

    4 HCl + O₂ → 2 H₂O + 2 Cl₂

    Let suppose we are given with 1 mole of HCl gas, Then,

    According to eq,

    89.6 L (4 moles) of HCl when reacted produced = 44.8 L (2 moles) Cl₂ gas

    So,

    22.4 L (1 mole) of HCl will produce = X L of Cl₂ gas

    Solving for X,

    X = (22.4 L * 44.8 L) : 89.6 L

    X = 11.2 L of Cl₂ Gas
