Solution

The correct option is A ions
The reaction in which the reactants exchange their ions in order to form new products is called double displacement reaction.

Example: Na2SO4(aq)+BaCl2(aq)BaSO4(s)+2NaCl(aq)

In the given equation, sodium sulphate (Na2SO4) and barium chloride (BaCl2) are exchanging their ions (both cations and anions) to form barium sulphate (BaSO4) and sodium chloride (NaCl).
