Answer:

After the well-known solids, liquids, and gases, plasmas are considered as the fourth state of matter. They are found rarely on Earth, however, they are found in enormous quantity all through the universe. As they comprise free-flowing charged particles, plasmas exhibit many specific features.  

In the majority of the plasmas, the electrons and protons take place in equal numbers, forming it electrically neutral. As they flow liberally, they are influenced by magnetic and electric fields in the manner not witnessed in the other forms of matter. These fields can affect plasmas over higher distances, warping, pinching, and modeling them, like the twisting flares observed on the Sun's surface.

Which of the following is a double replacement reaction? Ca(OH)2 + H2SO4 → CaSO4 + 2H2O CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O 8Fe + S8 → 8FeS Z
abruzzese [7]

That would be the first option Ca(OH)2 + H2SO4  → CaSO4 + 2H2O.

The Ca replaces the H2 in H2SO4,  and the  H2 replaces the Ca is Ca(OH)2.
