In displacement reaction, one element from its salt is displaced by a more reactive element e.g. in following example, Cu is displaced by Zn from CuSO4 because Zn is more reactive. In double displacement reaction, exchange of ions takes place between two reactants to form new products

et's imagine ourselves going to a dance and having a dance partner.
Once we arrive, we interact with the other people, and we end up
switching dance partners with another person. Now you end up with a new
dance partner. The same kind of thing can be compared to what occurs in a
double displacement reaction in chemistry.
A double displacement reaction, also known as a double replacement reaction or metathesis, is a type of chemical reaction where two compounds react, and the positive ions (cation) and the negative ions (anion) of the two reactants switch places, forming two new compounds or products. Here, you can see the general form of a double displacement reaction:
