Answer;
-Single replacement
Explanation;
The reaction;
Cu(s) + 2AgNO3= Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag , is an example of a single replacement reaction.
-It is a type of chemical reaction where an element reacts with a compound and takes the place of another element in that compound.
In the above reaction copper(Cu) takes the place of silver(Ag) in the salt AgNO3 to form Copper (ii) nitrate (CuNO3) and silver metal (Ag).
- Another example of a single replacement reaction occurs when potassium (K) reacts with water (H2O). A colorless solid compound named potassium hydroxide (KOH) forms, and hydrogen gas (H2) is set free.
