The correct Answer is:
A

`Cu + 2Ag NO_3 to 2Ag + Cu(NO_3)_2`

Certain metals have the capacity to displace some metals from their salt solutions. These reactions are known as metal displacement reactions. A metal placed higher in activity series can displace the metal occupying lower position from aqueous solution of its salt or a more reactive metal can displace less reactive metal from its salt solution. Q. Displacement reactions are shown by
