Single Answer MCQ
Q-00001815
Explain the concept of displacement reactions in the context of metal reactivity.
1
Reactions where metals combine with non-metals
2
Reactions where metals lose electrons
3
Reactions where a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound
4
Reactions where metals form alloys
Answer and Solution
Answer
C. Reactions where a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound
Solution:
Displacement reactions occur when a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its compound in an aqueous solution. The more reactive metal takes the place of the less reactive metal in the compound, leading to a change in the composition of the solution.
