Answer 1

Question:-

What kind of chemical reactions are represented by the following equation:

$X+ YZ = XZ + Y$9

AnsWeR:-

Displacement reaction is such a chemical reaction in which one or more element replaces one/more elements in a compound and takes the position of that element by combining with other element (which was not replaced from the compound).

It happens generally :-

$\star$If the first element is more reactive than the replaced element,then the first element gives a more stable product in the compound.

Given equation:-

X + YZ → XZ + Y

In this equation, X replaces the position of Y and makes Y a single element.And X combines with Z and makes a compound → XZ.

More displacement reaction examples:-

$\star\sf Fe + Cu{SO}_{4}$

$\star\sf NaOH + Ca{Br}_{2}$
