You can identify a single replacement reaction because the reactants are a compound + an element. The products of a single replacement reaction are found by switching the element with another element in the compound. Metals switch with metals, non-metals switch with non-metals, and the most reactive element is always in the compound.
A double replacement reaction can be identified because the reactants are always compound +compound. The products would also be two compounds but the elements would switch.
A single-replacement reaction
A single replacement reaction will not occur. In a single replacement reaction, either a metal will replace another metal in a compound, or an anion will replace another anion in a compound. Click on the related link to see the Wikipedia article on single displacement (single replacement).
single-displacement reaction
what type of chemical reaction is this __Ag+___CuSO4
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.
A single-replacement reaction
single replacement reaction
A single replacement reaction involve the replacement of an element with other in the molecule as in this model:A + B-C = A-C + B.
A single replacement reaction will not occur. In a single replacement reaction, either a metal will replace another metal in a compound, or an anion will replace another anion in a compound. Click on the related link to see the Wikipedia article on single displacement (single replacement).
This is not a replacement reaction. And the silicon chloride is SiCl4.
Correctly represented, it's Mg + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + H2, and it's a single replacement reaction.
Most batteries work via a single replacement reaction.

It can be, but it can also be other types of reaction. An example of an oxidation reaction that is also a single replacement would be Zn(s) + 2HCl ==> ZnCl2 + H2. In this reaction Zn is oxidized and H is reduced.
