Parks · Answer 1

Mg + AgNO₃ → Ag + Mg (NO₃) ₂

Explanation:

A single replacement reaction is one in which an element gets replaced by another in a compound.

In the reaction

Mg + AgC→ Ag + Mg (NO₃) ₂

Ag in AgNO₃ is replaced by Mg to give Mg (NO₃) ₂. Only one element is getting replaced and hence it is a single replacement reaction.
