Displacement reaction

The video explains how a more reactive element can replace a less reactive one in a compound. It uses the example of copper, which is more reactive than silver, to demonstrate how copper displaces silver ions from a silver nitrate solution. The process involves copper atoms losing electrons to become ions, while silver ions gain electrons to form solid silver on copper. This reaction results in a color change of the solution from clear to blue.
