One element takes the place of another in a compound.
Single-displacement reaction
When one element replaces another element in a compound during a chemical 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.
This kind of reaction is usually called a "single displacement" or :single replacement" reaction.
A more reactive element displace the less reactive element from a compound.Example: Fe + CuSO4 = Cu + FeSO4
When one element replaces another element in a compound during a chemical reaction
when one element replaces another in a compound when the reaction has occured
An element or ion moves out of one compound and into another. (One element is replaced by another in a compound.)
A compound or compound substance.
When one element is combined with another element, a chemical compound results. The elements are chemically bonded together to make this compound.
