Answer:

Displacement

Step-by-step explanation:

OH- in the reactant side of the reaction has switched from Na+ to Al 3+ in the product side. Decomposition is where a compound from the reactant side of the reaction would dissolve into elements in the product side, but that's not the case in this example.
