Sodium carbonate reacts with calcium chloride to form calcium carbonate and sodium chloride.
ππβπΆπβ+πΆππΆπββ πΆππΆπβ +2πππΆπ
In this reaction, sodium carbonate and calcium chloride exchange ions to form two new compounds. Hence, it is a double displacement reaction.
Pb(NOβ)β + Ki –> KNOβ
When lead nitrate reacts with potassium iodide, potassium nitrate and lead iodide is formed. In this reaction the both the reactants exchanges their irons after reaction. This type of reaction is known as double displacement reaction.
example of a double displacement reaction is the reaction between silver nitrate (AgNOβ) and sodium chloride (NaCl) to form silver chloride (AgCl) and sodium nitrate (NaNOβ):
AgNOβ (aq)+NaCl(aq) β AgCl(s)+NaNOβ (aq)
In this reaction, the silver cation (AgβΊ) from silver nitrate and the sodium cation (NaβΊ) from sodium chloride switch places, forming the insoluble silver chloride (AgCl) precipitate. Sodium nitrate remains in the aqueous solution. The formation of the white precipitate of silver chloride is a characteristic feature of this double displacement reaction.
