Ans. (b)

Double displacement reactions are those in which ions of the reactants are exchanged to form new compounds as products.

Na+ ion combines with Cl^ - ion and SO_{4}^{2-} ion combines with Ba^{2+} ion to form two new compounds as sodium chloride (NaCl) and barium sulphate (BaSO_4)respectively.

Sodium and Barium are displaced from each other’s salts hence it is a double displacement reaction.
