For question 1 - I wrote something about the reaction being very exothermic/volatile
2 - I think it should have been something about the drying agent but I wrote some fake stuff (water/needs further distillation)
3-
i wrote reaction is exothermic only...is it okay?

and bro for the question which says WHAT YOU SEE.....i thnk writing bubbles seen and solid decreases in size is wrong? i wrote similar to that stuff...:(

No bubble is correct _ either you write bubble of gas or effervescence. Solid decrease in size? that sounds wrong because the reactants are HI(g) and H2SO4(aq) there is no solid :). If you said a "grey solid" is formed that's right.

I disagree _ when you have the first reaction, you will get HI(g) which will form bubble ; some of it will escape while the remaining will react with H2SO4 to form Hydrogen sulfide gas( again another bubble) and Iodine. You'll also get misty fumes
