What occurs in a displacement reaction?
Show hintHide hint
Think about reactivity.
Question 2.
What is the general form of a displacement reaction?
Show hintHide hint
Remember how 'A' interacts with 'B' in a formula.
3Question 3.
What defines a displacement reaction?
- A + AB → A + B
- A + BC → AC + B
- A + B + C → AB + AC
Show hintHide hint
Look for reactions where one element replaces another.
4Question 4.
True or False: The reactivity series impacts which element can displace another in a displacement reaction.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Consider the nature of reactivity.
Question 5.
Consider a solution of lead(II) acetate and zinc powder. Predict what elements will remain after the reaction if zinc displaces lead.
Show hintHide hint
Use what you've learned about the reactivity series.
Question 6.
Analyze the following reaction: 2 Na + Cl₂ → 2 NaCl. Where does a displacement reaction fit in here?
Show hintHide hint
