Answer 1

The reaction you have presented, where copper (Cu) reacts with silver nitrate (AgNO3), is an example of a single displacement reaction. In this type of reaction, one element (copper) displaces another element (silver) in a compound (silver nitrate).

So, the correct answer is single displacement.
