The reaction modeled by the equation \( A + BC \rightarrow B + AC \) is known as a **single replacement reaction** (or single displacement reaction). In this type of reaction, one element (A) exchanges places with another element (B) in a compound (BC) to form a new compound (AC) and release the displaced element (B).
In simpler terms, in a single replacement reaction, an element reacts with a compound, and one part of the compound is replaced by the element.
