    The correct option is C) ions are exchanged between two compounds.

    Explanation:

    In chemistry, a double displacement reaction can be described as a reaction in which two reactants react in such a way that their ions exchange place leading to the formation of two new products. In a double displacement reaction, the positive ions of one reactant change places with the negative ion of the second reactant and vice versa. Hence, option C is correct.

    Other option, like option D, is not correct because in this type of reaction, ions are exchanges and not the electrons. Electrons are exchanged in redox reactions.
