"Ions are exchanged between two compounds."

Explanation: In a double replacement (double displacement) reaction, the cations and anions of two ionic compounds swap partners (AB + CD → AD + CB). This differs from single replacement (a substitution) and from redox reactions (which involve electron transfer).
