Steps on how to carry up a displacement reaction?

Start with a more reactive metal or element and a less reactive metal or element in solution or in contact with each other. The more reactive metal will displace the less reactive metal from its solution or compound, resulting in a new compound containing the more reactive metal and a separate less reactive metal. The displacement reaction follows the activity series of metals, where more reactive metals displace less reactive metals from their compounds.
