Question

Explain the following terms with example. 1)Displacement reaction. ​

Answer 1

Displacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its compound. Both metals and non-metals take part in displacement reactions.

For example,

Mg(s)+CuSO

4

(aq)⟶MgSO

4

(aq)+Cu(s)

Answer 2

Answer:

A displacement reaction is the one wherein the atom or a set of atoms is displaced by another atom in a molecule. For instance, when Iron is added to a copper sulphate solution, it displaces the copper metal. The above equation exists when A is more reactive than B.
