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.
