(v) Dilute sulphuric acid is adeed to sodium hydroxide solution .

(i) hydrolysis; (ii) combination;  (iii) single replacement;  

(iv) single replacement; (v) double replacement

Explanation:

(i) Carbohydrates are broken down to form glucose

Carbohydrates must react with water to form glucose.

For example,

C₆H₁₁O₅-O-C₆H₁₁O₆ + H-O-H ⟶ 2C₆H₁₂O₆

       maltose                                          glucose

This is a hydrolysis reaction — the reaction of a compound in which a molecule of water breaks one or more bonds to form new substances.

The reaction is not a decomposition (a reaction in which a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances), because two different molecules are involved.

(ii) Tarnishing of copper.

Cu + S ⟶ CuS

This is a combination or synthesis reaction — in which two or more substances combine to form a single new substance.

(iii) Heating of ferric oxide with aluminium powder

Fe₂O₃ + 2Al ⟶ Al₂O₃ + 2Fe

This is a single displacement or single replacement reaction — in which one element replaces another element in a compound.

Here, Al is replacing Fe in its oxide.

(iv) Blue colour of copper sulphate solution disappears when zinc dust is added to it

CuSO₄ + Zn ⟶ ZnSO₄  + Cu

This is a single displacement or single replacement reaction.

Here, Zn is replacing Cu in its sulfate.

(v) Dilute sulfuric acid is added to sodium hydroxide solution  

H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH ⟶ Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

2H⁺, SO₄²⁻ + 2Na⁺OH⁻ ⟶ 2Na⁺, SO₄²⁻ + 2H-OH

This is a double displacement or double replacement reaction — in which the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds exchange places to form two new compounds.

The Na⁺ ions are replacing the H⁺ ions in the sulfuric, forming sodium sulfate and water,
