What is the difference between displacement and double displacement reactions? Write equations for these reactions.
In a displacement reaction, a more reactive element replaces a less reactive element from a compound. For Example: CuSo4 (aq) + Zn (s) → ZnSO4 (aq) + Cu (s) In a double displacement reaction, two atoms or a group of atoms switch places to form new compounds. For Example: Na2SO4 (aq) + BaCl2 (aq) → BaSO4(s) + 2NaCl (aq)
