The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze each statement and determine whether they correctly describe the type of chemical reaction. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Burning of magnesium ribbon - Combination reaction** - When magnesium (Mg) burns in the presence of oxygen (O2), it forms magnesium oxide (MgO). This involves two reactants (Mg and O2) combining to form a single product (MgO). - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. 2. **Action of carbon dioxide on quick lime - Combination reaction** - Quick lime is calcium oxide (CaO). When carbon dioxide (CO2) reacts with quick lime, it forms calcium carbonate (CaCO3). This is also a reaction where two reactants combine to form one product. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. 3. **Exposure of silver bromide to light - Decomposition reaction** - Silver bromide (AgBr) decomposes into silver (Ag) and bromine (Br2) when exposed to light. This is a single reactant breaking down into two products. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **correct**. 4. **Addition of zinc to dilute sulphuric acid - Double displacement reaction** - When zinc (Zn) is added to dilute sulphuric acid (H2SO4), it displaces hydrogen (H) from the acid, forming zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) and hydrogen gas (H2). This is a single displacement reaction, not a double displacement. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. 5. **Addition of an acid to a base to form a salt - Single displacement reaction** - When an acid reacts with a base, they typically undergo a neutralization reaction to form salt and water. This involves the exchange of ions between the acid and the base, which is characteristic of a double displacement reaction, not a single displacement. - **Conclusion:** This statement is **incorrect**. ### Summary of Incorrect Matches: - The incorrect matches are: - (iv) Addition of zinc to dilute sulphuric acid - should be a **single displacement reaction**. - (v) Addition of an acid to a base to form a salt - should be a **double displacement reaction**. ### Final Answer: The incorrect matches are (iv) and (v). ---
