\(Fe_2O_3+1Al \rightarrow Al_2O_3+2Fe\)
The above reaction is an example of a _______________
Options:
a. Combination reaction
b. Double displacement reaction
c. Decomposition reaction
d. Displacement reaction
Answers (1)
d. The given reaction is an example of a single displacement reaction
Explanation: The oxygen from ferrous oxide is transferred to aluminum metal, forming
aluminum oxide. In this reaction, aluminum, being more reactive than iron, displaces iron from
its oxide. This process is known as a displacement reaction, where a more reactive element
replaces a less reactive one.
