The reaction in which two compound exchange their ions to form two new compounds is called (a) displacement reaction (b) combination reaction (c) double displacement reaction (d) redox reaction
OptionC. So, to solve this question we will know about the different kinds of given reactions. So let’s start with the definition of Displacement reaction. Displacement reaction or single displacement reaction is the one in which one kind of atom is replaced by the other kind of atom in the solution and results in a new product formation. Next coming to the double displacement reaction : So it is the reaction in which two compounds exchange their ions or radicals mutually to form new two compounds. Let's have a look at the example: BaCl2+Na2SO4→BaSO4+2Nacl. In these chloride and sulphide ions are exchanged . Next, a synthesis reaction can be described as a reaction in which many reactants combine with each other to form a single product. This reaction is generally an exothermic reaction. So, on the basis of the above discussion we can say that the correct answer is double displacement reaction. Therefore, correct answer is option C. i.e. in double displacement reaction do two compounds exchange their ions or radicals mutually to form new two compounds.
