What is the difference between displacement and
double displacement reaction ? Write equations
for these reactions.
Answers
Explanation:
Displacement Reactions- The chemical reaction in which more reactive elements displaces less reactive elements from its salt solution.
ex- Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) = FeSO4 (aq) + Cu (s)
Double Displacement Reactions- A reactions in which new compounds are formed by mutual exchange of ions between two compounds.
ex- Na2SO4(aq) + BaCl2(aq) = BaSO4(s) + 2NaCl(aq)
Answer:
In a displacement reaction, a more reactive element replaces a less reactive element from a compound.
whereas In a double displacement reaction, two atoms or a group of atoms switch places to form new compounds. ... Metals react with the salt solution of another metal.
Equations
Displacement reaction
Mg + CuSO4 ➡ MgSO4 + Cu
Double Displacement reaction
AgNO3 + KCl ➡ AgCl⬇ + KNO3
