What are the generic formulas for single replacement reactions?
gpt
A single replacement reaction can be represented by one of two formulas: 1) A + BC -> AC + B when A is a metal cation, or 2) AB + C -> AC + B when A is a nonmetal anion.
Explanation: Single replacement reactions involve one element displacing another element in a compound; these formulas illustrate the general patterns for these reactions.
