What observations support the assumption that all of the iodine reacted with the zinc explain?
1 answer:
Answer: It will lead to form a white colored product .
Explanation: The reaction of iodine and zinc involves the direct reaction between a metal and a non-metal leading to the synthesis of a metal salt.
During this reaction, heat is released (exothermic reaction) while forming Zinc Iodide() which can be easily obtained by evaporating the solvent.
By looking at the stoichiometric coefficients of reactants and products, we observe that whole of the iodine has reacted with zinc.

Answer:
The pH decreases.
Explanation:
Hello,
In organic chemistry, oxidation accounts for either the increasing of C-O bonds or the increasing in the oxygen atoms into the molecule. Thus, if we consider the oxidation from benzyl alcohol to benzoic acid, there will be a carboxyl functional group instead of a hydroxile one. Now, the presence of the polar -O-H bonds that are ionizable, there will be a releasing causing the pH to decrease (increase acidity).
