It's a Single Replacement (or Displacement) Reaction because the equation follows the basic format for that type of reaction.
For Single Replacement Reactions, the general formula is:
AB + C = AC + B
So, if there's an element and compound on both sides of the equation, it's single replacement.
Try sugar. I hope this helps!!!!!
Water is a compound. A compound is made up of two or more elements. In the case of water, or H2O, there are 2 hydrogen atoms present and 1 oxygen atom. I hope this helps you on your assignment. Good luck!
