Answer:

KCl + AgNO₃ —> AgCl + KNO₃

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question correctly, we must understand the definition of a double displacement reaction.

A double displacement reaction is a reaction in which the ions of the two reacting compounds exchange to form new compounds different from the two reacting compounds. Example is given below:

XY + AB —> XB + AY

Considering the options given in the question above, only the equation:

KCl + AgNO₃ —> AgCl + KNO₃

Satisfy the definition of a double displacement reaction.
