Answer:

Displacement

Step-by-step explanation:

OH- in the reactant side of the reaction has switched from Na+ to Al 3+ in the product side. Decomposition is where a compound from the reactant side of the reaction would dissolve into elements in the product side, but that's not the case in this example.

Al(s) + NaOH(aq) → Al(OH)3(s) + Na+(aq) displacement, or decomposition.
