Question

The following is what type of reaction: PbCl2 + AgNO3→Pb(NO3)2 + AgCl

  1. Synthesis
  2. Decomposition
  3. Single Replacement
  4. Double Replacement

hintHint:

Double displacement reaction can be termed as when two displacements take place in a reaction.

The correct answer is: Double Replacement


    The word displace means to push out. A more reactive element can displace a less reactive element out of its compound during a chemical reaction, this reaction is termed as displacement reaction.
    Double displacement reaction can be termed as when two displacements take place in a reaction.
    A double displacement reaction is a chemical reaction which occurs when parts of two ionic compounds are exchanged, making two new compounds.
    PbCl2 + AgNO→Pb(NO3)2 + AgCl
    Here chloride and nitrate both are exchanged. It is a double displacement reaction.
