Kelsey Moyer · Answer 1

Single-replacement or replacement

Explanation:

The single-replacement reaction is a + bc - > ac + b, compare them.

NaBr + Cl2 - > 2 NACl + Br.

AB + C - > AC + B

As you can see they are the same (even though the b is with the a and not with the c. The formula can be switched around a little with the order of b and c) ((also like ions replace like ions in replacements, which they are in this))

Fido · Answer 2

Replacement

Explanation:

in replacements, like ions replace like. in this equation, we can see that Bromine replaced Chlorine. so, the answer is replacement.
