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.
