Based on its formula, what type of chemical reaction occurs between silver nitrate (agno3) and copper (cu)? 2agno3 + cu → 2ag + cu(no3)2 a. synthesis b. decomposition c. single replacement d. double replacement when hydrogen peroxide (h2o2) is added to potass

Answer : The correct option is, (C) Single replacement.

Explanation :

Synthesis reaction : It is a type of reaction in which the reactants present in elemental state react to give a single product.

Decomposition reaction : It is a type of reaction in which a single larger compound decomposes to give two or more smaller molecules as a product.

Single replacement reaction : It is a type of reaction in which the more reactive metal displaces the least reactive metal from its solution.

Double replacement reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction in which the two compounds react and positive cation and negative anion of two reactants exchange their places to form two new products.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

This reaction is a single displacement reaction in which the more reactive copper metal displaces the least reactive metal from its solution   to give silver and .

Hence, the given balanced reaction is a single replacement type of reaction.
