Answer:

A colorless odorless gas evolves

Explanation:

Orange juice is highly acidic. Unripe orange juice is even more acidic! As a result of this, unripe orange juice irritate the digestive tract.

We know that metals that are high up in the activity series evolves hydrogen gas when in contact with acids.
