reacted, produced brown gas, produced blue solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

reacted shows that there was some kind of a reaction

Answer:

the formation of a gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

A chemical reaction is a transformation or chemical phenomenon that occurs when the nature or composition of matter is changed. In this case, the initial particles (which can be molecules, atoms, ionic agglomerates, ions, etc.) are as if disassembled and their atoms rearrange themselves, assembling new molecules, agglomerates, atoms, ions, etc., that is, new substances. In short, a chemical reaction generates a new substance that was not initially in that environment.

For this reason, in the case of the question shown above, the evidence that a chemical reaction has occurred is the production of a gas. Gas is the substance created by this reaction.
