Question

In a chemical reaction, one element replaces another element in a compound to form a new substance. Which of the following best describes this type of chemical reaction?

Answer 1

Explanation:

A single-replacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which one element replaces another in a compound. F₂ + 2NaCl → 2NaF + Cl₂, where F replaces Cl in NaCl. A double-replacement reaction is a reaction in which the metals in two ionic compounds exchange partners.
