Solution
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\phantom{...............................................}\ce{H}\\
\phantom{...............................................}|\\
\ce{\underset{(1-ethoxy-prop-1-ene)}{CH3 - CH = CH} - \underset{\bullet\bullet}{\overset{\bullet\bullet}{O}} - C2H5 ->[H - I][\Delta] CH3 - CH = CH - O - C2H5}
\end{array}\]
\[\ce{\underset{(1-iodo-prop-1-ene)}{CH3 - CH = CH - I} <-[+I^Θ] CH3 - CH = \overset{⊕}{C}H + C2H5OH}\]
This reaction follows SN1 mechanism because in this reaction the more stable carbocation is formed that is double bonded carbocation. Therefore, the given molecule reacts with HI to form ethanol and 1-iodo prop-1-ene.
\[\ce{CH3 - CH = CH - O - C2H5 ->[HI/\Delta] \underset{(1-iodo-prop-1-ene)}{CH3 - CH = CH - I} + \underset{(ethanol)}{C2H5OH}}\]
