Meaning
A displacement reaction is a chemical reaction where one element in a compound is replaced by another more reactive element.

- Displacement reactions happen when a compound contains an element that is replaced by another element that is higher on the reactivity series.
- Displacement reactions can be used to extract metals from ores.
