Question

Give one example of an oxidation-reduction reaction which is also a displacement reaction.

Short Answer
Advertisements

Solution

\[\ce{CuO + H2 -> Cu + H2O}\]

In this reaction, Cu is being displaced, so it is a displacement reaction. It is also a redox reaction because CuO is reduced to Cu and H2 is oxidised to H2O.
