Question
Write a displacement reaction for non-metal.

Answer

In this reaction, one anion replaces another one from its solution. An anion is a negatively charged ion or non-metal. For example, more reactive halogen replaces less reactive halogen from its solution.
  • Chlorine displaces bromine from an aqueous solution of sodium bromide.
$\text{Cl}_2(\text{g})+2\text{NaBr(aq)}\xrightarrow{\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ }2\text{NaCl(aq)}+\text{Br}_2(\text{g})$
  • Bromine splaces iodine from potassium iodide solution.
$\text{Br(g)}+2\text{Kl(aq)}\xrightarrow{\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ }2\text{KBr(aq)}+\text{l}_2(\text{aq})$
