This is a single replacement, or single displacement reaction.
when one element replaces another in a compound when the reaction has occured
When one element replaces another element in a compound during a chemical reaction
it is because zinc is more reactive than copper. thus it can replace copper from its compound. displacement reaction is the reaction in which the more reactive element replaces the less reactive element from its compound. hence zinc is replacing copper from its compound. Obviously it is a displacement reaction.
Displacement reactions happen when one element or ion is more reactive than another in the same solution and replaces it in a compound. This will happen if the elements displacing each other are different metals or are halogens .
Single-displacement reaction
When one element replaces another element in a compound during a chemical reaction
It is called a single displacement reaction.
This is a single replacement, or single displacement reaction.
A single-displacement reaction, also named single-replacement reaction, is a type of oxidation-reduction chemical reaction when an element or ion moves out of one compound and into another-that is, one element is replaced by another in a compound.
One element takes the place of another in a compound.
This kind of reaction is usually called a "single displacement" or :single replacement" reaction.
when one element replaces another in a compound when the reaction has occured
single replacement :)
It is called a "Replacement" Reaction.
When one element replaces another element in a compound during a chemical reaction
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.
