Question

The reaction \[\ce{3ClO- (aq) -> ClO3- (aq) + 2Cl- (aq) + 2Cl- (aq)}\] is an example of

पर्याय

• Oxidation reaction

• Reduction reaction

• Disproportionation reaction

• Decomposition reaction

Answer 1

Disproportionation reaction

Explanation:

Because the oxidation number of Cl changes from + (in ClO^–) to + 5 (in (103^–) and –1, it is a disproportionation reaction (in CI^–).
