A single replacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which one element is sustituted for another element in a compound giving a new element and a new compound as products.
For example : A + BC ----> AC +B. In this general reaction, element A is a metal and replaces element B, also a metal, in the compound. This reaction only take place if the metal A is more reactive than metal B in above reaction.
The activity series lists the metals and non-metals in decreasing order of chemical activity.
An element that is higher in the series will displace an element that is below it.
