Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`overset(0)(P)_(4)+3NaOH+3H_(2)O rarr 3NaH_(2)overset(+1)(P)O_(2)+overset(-3)(P)H_(2)`
Disproprtionation reactions are a special tupe of redox reactions. In a disproportionation reaction, an element in one oxidation state is simultaneouly oxidized and reduced.
