Answer:
This is called a displacement reaction. A metal can only displace another metal from a compound if it is located above it in the reactivity series. A displacement reaction happens when a more reactive metal (one that forms positive ions more easily) displaces a less reactive metal from a compound.

Answer:
A single-displacement reaction, also known as single replacement reaction or exchange reaction, is a chemical reaction in which one element is replaced by another in a compound.
The reactivity series of metals is a chart listing metals in order of decreasing reactivity. In general, the more reactive a metal is: the more vigorously it reacts with other substances. the more easily it loses electrons to form positive ions (cations)
