The`3ClO^(-)(aq.)to ClO_(3)^(-)(aq.)+2Cl^(-)(aq.)` is an example of

A

oxidation reaction

B

disproportionation

C

reduction reaction

D

decomposition

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Oxidation state of Cl in `CIO^(-)` is+1. While oxidation state of Cl in `CIO_(3)^(-)`, is +5 and `Cl^(-)` is -1. Thus, oxidation state of chlorine decreases as well as increases. Hence, chlorine undergoes reduction and this oxidation. Hence, reaction is disproportionation.
