Answer: This is a type of double displacement reaction.

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which exchange of ions takes place. General equation for this type of reaction is:


AB+CD\rightarrow AD+CB

We are given a balanced chemical equation. The reaction follows:


K_2CO_3(aq)+BaCI_2(aq)\rightarrow 2KCI(aq)+BaCO_3(s)

Here, exchange of potassium and barium ions are taking place.

Hence, this equation is a type of double displacement reaction.
