What is the formula of zinc chloride? And is it a solid under the reaction conditions?

jarklor05:  don't be surprised if you lose some points for incorrect phase.  If something is an aqueous solution, the phase is (aq).  Although, I am excited to ponder reacting solid zinc metal with liquified hydrogen chloride gas, I wonder how that reaction will proceed. ;D
Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.
