Concept introduction:
In a single-displacement reaction, the displacement of atom of an element by the atoms of another element takes place. The replacement depends upon their reactivity. One example showing this type of reaction is,
Answer to Problem 88A
The reaction will not take place. So, the chemical equation will be
Explanation of Solution
To know the replacement of metal by another metal, the activity series of metals must be followed. Activity series of metals contains a list of metals with decreasing chemical reactivity. Highly reactive metal replaces the least reactive metals from a compound. Magnesium is more reactive than nickel. So, nickel cannot replace magnesium from magnesium chloride. So, the given reaction will not take place. So, the chemical equation is as follows:
(b)
Interpretation:
The chemical reaction for the single replacement reaction needs to be determined.

The reaction occurs and the chemical equation is as follows:
Explanation of Solution
To know the replacement of metal by another metal, the activity series of metals must be followed. Activity series of metals contains a list of metals with decreasing chemical reactivity. Highly reactive metal replaces the least reactive metals from a compound. Calcium is more reactive than copper. So, it can replace copper from copper (II) bromide. So, the reaction will occur and the chemical equation is,
(c)
Interpretation:
The chemical reaction for the following single replacement reaction needs to be written, if the reaction occurs.

Highly reactive metal replaces the least reactive metals from a compound. Magnesium is more reactive than silver. So, it can replace silver from silver nitrate and thus a chemical reaction takes place and the chemical equation for the reaction is,
