Explanation:

A double - replacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction where the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds exchange places. In the reaction \(CaF_{2}+NaBr
ightarrow NaF + CaBr_{2}\), the \(Ca^{2 +}\) and \(Na^{+}\) ions (cations) exchange their anions (\(F^{-}\) and \(Br^{-}\)).
