Displacement reactions occur between metals and metal ions. 2+1
5 Displacement reactions can be used to determine the order of reactivity of metals such as =3
lead (Pb), nickel (Ni), and silver (Ag).
The ionic equation for a displacement reaction is shown.

Ni(s) + Pb2+(aq)  Pb(s) + Ni2+(aq)

The ionic half-equations for this reaction are shown.

Ni(s)  Ni2+(aq) + 2e–

Pb2+(aq) + 2e–  Pb(s)
 The ionic half-equations show that electrons are donated by nickel atoms and accepted by
lead ions.
