You are given the following chemical equation:
Mg (s) + CuO (s) → MgO (s) + Cu (s)
This equation represents:
(a) decomposition reaction as well as displacement reaction
(b) combination reaction as well as double displacement reaction
(c) redox reaction as well as displacement reaction
(d) double displacement reaction as well as redox reaction
उत्तर
(c) redox reaction as well as displacement reaction
In the given reaction, magnesium takes oxygen and gets oxidised, whereas copper loses oxygen and gets reduced, so it is a redox reaction. Also magnesium, being more reactive metal, displaces copper from the copper solution and hence it is a displacement reaction.
