Question

NaBr +
Ca(OH)2 →
CaBr2 +
NaOH
Type of reaction:

Answer 1

Answer:

Double displacement reaction

Explanation:

We are given the reaction;

NaBr + Ca(OH)₂ → CaBr₂ + NaOH

We are required to identify the type of reaction;

• The reaction is a double displacement reaction.
• A double displacement is a type of reaction in which compounds involved in the reaction exchange cations and anions to form new compounds as products.

• In this case;

• The reactants NaBr and Ca(OH)₂ exchange ions, Na takes the hydroxide ion to form sodium hydroxide while calcium takes bromide from sodium bromide to form calcium bromide.
