Answer 1

The reaction you provided is:

Cu + AgNO3 →

This is an example of a **single displacement reaction** (also known as a single replacement reaction). In this type of reaction, one element (in this case, copper, Cu) displaces another element (silver, Ag) in a compound (AgNO3).

So the correct response is:

**single displacement**
