The industrial importance of displacement reaction is that it helps in extraction of substance/ material from their ore. For instance, Aluminium is used to remove Iron from its compound (Iron Oxide) resulting in a pure Iron that can be used to join railway lines together.

∙ 10y agoMost metals are found as compounds. These compounds are where the metals are extracted in the mining industry. They are called ores. Ores are usually oxides, carbonates or sulphides of the metal, mixed with sandy impurities.
Some metals can be extracted from their ores by displacement reactions.
For example, iron can be extracted from its ore, haematite, (iron oxide) by heating with carbon at high temperatures. An industrial scale of extraction of iron is done in a giant blast furnace.
If you do this the following displacement reaction occurs:
Iron oxide + carbon -> iron + carbon dioxide
2Fe2O3+ 3C -> 4Fe + 3CO2

∙ 9y agoApplications of double displacement reactions in paint and pharmaceutical industry:
Double displacement reactions are used to make paints.For example: Lead nitrate is treated with potassium iodide to get a precipitate of lead iodide + solution of potassium nitrate.The lead iodide so obtained is used as a pigment in paint.
Similarly, Calcium carbonate can be used as a white pigment and is formed by the following reaction:
CaCl2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq)→ CaCO3 (s) + 2 NaCl (aq)
In this way, different coloured pigments can be prepared by double displacement reactions.
Magnesium hydroxide in medicines used to treat constipation is produced through a double displacement reaction. Antacids are used to balance acids and gas in the stomach.They react through double displacements to neutralize the balance of other acids and gases found in the stomach. Different forms of medicine involve double displacements to cure sicknesses.Pharmaceutical industry
We know that sodium bicarbonate is basic in nature. It is a mild base and is an ingredient of antacids. Being alkaline, it neutralises excess acid in the stomach and provides relief.
NaHCO 3 + HCl → NaCl + H 2 O + CO 2

What kind of reaction is Kl(aq) AgNO3(aq)-Agl(s) KNO3(aq)?
AgNO3 + KI --> AgI + KNO3 is a double replacement (displacement) reaction.
What is single displacement?
Single displacement is a oxidation-reduction chemical reaction in which an element or ion moves from one compound to another. There is no single person to whom credit was given for the discovery of single displacement.
Classify this reaction k2cro4aq bano32aqbacro4s 2kno3aq?
K2CrO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) -> BaCrO4(s) + 2KNO3(aq) is a double displacement reaction.
How can a table listing of metals in an activity series be useful for prending whether a chemical reaction will occur?
An activity series of metals can predict whether a replacement (displacement) reaction will occur. You use the activity series to compare the reactivity of different metals in order to predict whether a replacement reaction will occur. A metal that is above another metal in the series will replace that metal in a compound.
Which is NOT a sign that a double displacement reaction has occurred?
1) Formation of a precipitate 2) Usually there is a colour change. 3)Neutralization reactions (also a double displ. reaction) involving an acid and a base form water which is a clue.
A single-displacement reaction and a double-displacement reaction are always redox reactions.?
Single displacement reaction and a double displacement reaction are redox reactions. apex- false
Are single displacement and double displacement reactions always redox reactions?
A single displacement reaction is always a redox reaction, buta double displacement reaction is not a redox reaction.

What reaction is a chemical reaction in which two elements in different compounds trade places?
either a displacement reaction or a double displacement reaction
A single-displacement reaction is always a redox reaction but a redox reaction isn't always a single-displacement reaction.?
This is true -APEX
Is this a synthesis reaction single displacement reaction decomposition reaction or double displacement reaction KNO3-KNO2 plus O2?
decomposition
A single displacement reaction is always a redox reaction but a redox reaction isnt always a single displacement reaction?
false true
Is a redox reaction always a single-displacement reaction but a single-displacement reaction isn't always a redox reaction?
This is true -APEX
Is a double displacement reaction hydrogen bonding?
The double displacement reaction is not related to hydrogen bonding.
