Solution

  1. A displacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its compound. In the given options, the reaction "Lithium + lead nitrate → Lithium nitrate + lead" is a displacement reaction. Here, Lithium, being more reactive, displaces Lead from Lead nitrate.

  2. When zinc is added to a copper sulfate solution, a displacement reaction occurs because zinc is more reactive than copper. The blue solution of copper sulfate turns colorless, and a brown solid (copper) is formed. So, "The solution turns from blue to colourless and a brown solid is formed" is the correct option.

  3. A displacement reaction will occur if a more reactive metal is added to the solution of a less reactive metal. From the given reactivity series (potassium > calcium > zinc > copper), the pair "Zinc plus calcium chloride" will result in a displacement reaction because Zinc is more reactive than Calcium.

  4. The reaction of silver oxide with hydrogen is a reduction reaction, where hydrogen reduces silver oxide to silver and water is formed as a by-product. So, "Silver plus water" is the correct answer.
