What kind of reaction occurs when one element replaces another in a compound?

This is called a replacement reaction. When one element replaces another in a compound, it is called single replacement or single displacement. An example isZn + 2HCl ---> ZnCl2 + H2 where the zinc replaces the hydrogen in the acid to form zinc chloride.


What reaction type is Cu plus Hcl?

There is usually no reaction, because copper is below hydrogen in the electromotive series and therefore does not displace hydrogen from its compounds, and HCl is a nonoxidizing acid.
