I have the below XML which adds my static block to the page sidebar, then removes the wishlist. I would like to add a div wrapper to this static block with a css class.

I thought this could be done with the following argument, but it does not work.

<argument name="css_class" xsi:type="string">faq</argument>

Here is the full XML so far if anyone could help it would be appreciated.

<referenceContainer name="sidebar.additional">
   <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="faq_sidebar">
       <arguments>
            <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">faq_sidebar</argument>
            <argument name="css_class" xsi:type="string">faq</argument>
       </arguments>
   </block>
</referenceContainer>

You can add class like this

<referenceContainer name="sidebar.additional" htmlClass="css_class" htmlTag="div">
   <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="faq_sidebar">
       <arguments>
            <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">faq_sidebar</argument>
            <argument name="css_class" xsi:type="string">faq</argument>
       </arguments>
   </block>

For adding class or div wrapper to a block I would suggest to use container. eg-

<container name="div.faq.block" htmlTag="div" htmlClass="faq_sidebar" after="-">
            <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="faq_sidebar" >
                <arguments>
                    <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">faq_sidebar</argument>
                </arguments>
            </block>
</container>
