Displacement reaction
Explanation
Endothermic reactions are those in which energy is absorbed. In the reaction of silver bromide, sunlight is absorbed and so, silver bromide decomposes into silver and bromine. This is a decomposition reaction, not a combination or displacement reaction.

Explanation
When iron is attacked by substances around it such as moisture and air, it is said to rust and this process is called rusting.
Damp areas alone supply both the necessary requirements (Air and water) for rust to develop. Therefore, rusting is more common in damp areas.

An atom of one element change into those of another element to form new products
0%
A rearrangement of atoms takes place to form new products
Explanation
According to Dalton's theory, atoms of the same element are alike in all respect, and atoms of different elements are different.
In a chemical reaction, one substance is converted into another by rearrangement of atoms not by changing elements of one type into another.

Explanation
The reaction between carbon and oxygen to form carbon dioxide can be classified as :
combustion reaction, exothermic reaction and combination reaction.
Hence, the option (C) (I) and (IV) is the correct answer.
It is an exothermic reaction as heat is evolved during the reaction. It is a combination reaction as carbon combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. It is a combustion reaction as carbon is burnt in the presence of oxygen.
