Question

answer the question based upon the reaction below: (nh₄)₂cro₄(aq) + 2agno₃(aq) -> ag₂cro₄(s) + 2nh₄no₃(aq) identify the type of reaction. single displacement oxidation reduction double displacement acid - base reaction

Explanation:

In a double displacement reaction, the positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) of two ionic compounds exchange places. Here, in \((NH_4)_2CrO_4\) and \(AgNO_3\), \(NH_4^{+}\) and \(Ag^{+}\) exchange their anions (\(CrO_4^{2 -}\) and \(NO_3^{-}\)). There is no transfer of electrons (so not oxidation - reduction), no single element replacing another (so not single displacement), and it is not an acid - base (proton transfer) reaction.

Answer:

Double Displacement
