I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The generalized equation that represents a double displacement reaction would be  AC +BD → AD + BC. This reaction is a type of chemical reaction where two compounds react, and the positive ions (cation) and the negative ions (anion) of the two reactants switch places, forming two new compounds or products.

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which there occurs interchange of both positive and negative ions of the reacting species.

For example, [tex]AC + BD \rightarrow AD + BC[/tex]

Here, negative ion that is C and D interchange their places with each other resulting in the formation of two new compounds.

Therefore, we can conclude that the equation [tex]AC + BD \rightarrow AD + BC[/tex] is the generalized equation which represents a double displacement reaction.
