In a double replacement reaction the cations and anions switch to make two new compounds. It has the general form of AB + CD ==> AD + CB. An actual example might be:AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) ==> AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq). In a double replacement, one of the products must be either a precipitate (solid), a weak electrolyte, water, or a gas, otherwise, if all products are soluble, then there is no reaction.

Is combining hydrogen and oxygen a double-replacement reaction?

No, combining hydrogen and oxygen to form water is a synthesis reaction, not a double-replacement reaction. In a double-replacement reaction, the cations and anions in two compounds switch places to form new compounds.


Why wouldn't a double replacement reaction occur?

A double replacement reaction may not occur if the possible products are insoluble or if there is no driving force for the reaction to proceed. Additionally, if the reactants do not contain the necessary ions to exchange partners, a double replacement reaction may not occur.
