HI ,I want to travel from Innsbruck to Florencein one day,  but I can only book the train seat from Bolzano Italy. Which I have booked, if I miss the connection that I booked can I just catch the next train or do pay for another seat reservation ? 
 Please advise

Giving an entire month isn't really enough to advise. But in general don't plan a 5 min connection to an infrequent long-distance train with mandatory reservations.

What connections in particular are you looking at (+ travel date)?

Reservations aren't required on the Brenner route. Nevertheless you should still plan some margin as the RJ trains are coming from Germany and often get technical issues at the border.

Ok soon the 18th I am thinking of getting on train at 10.49 from innsbruck to Brennero SBA 5212 with an 11min change train to  Bolzano Re17151 then a change train of 13 mins to Florence. That would work 

ok ,right

Yes there shouldn't be an issue. You won't be the only one connecting either.
