Answer 2

Displacement Reaction:

A displacement reaction is the one wherein the atom or a set of atoms is displaced by another atom in a molecule. For instance, when iron is added to a copper sulphate solution, it displaces the copper metal.

A and B have to be either:

Halogens where C indicates a cation.

Different metals wherein C indicates an anion.
