Answer 1

Are you aware of what a double replacement reaction is?

Answer 2

yes, but that is not one of the options. I was also thinking double displacement.

Answer 3

Well, since you already know it, I guess I don't have to explain.
Exchange of ions is the same thing as double replacement.

Answer 4

Ohhh thanks, I was also wondering what exchange of ions meant, so thank you!!!
