Answer:

D) Both products are solids.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a chemical reaction such as:

CaI2 (s) + Cl2 (g) → CaCl2 (s) + I2 (s)

You can see the phases of the chemicals involved in the reaction inmediately after the chemical formula. Where (s) means solid, (l) liquid and (g) gas

The CaI₂, CaCl₂ and I₂ are solids and Cl₂ a gas.

That means the products are solids and right solution is:

D) Both products are solids.
