Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?

A

Chlorine dioxide `(ClO_(2))` is powerful oxidising agent but bleaching action is lower than `Cl_(2)`

B

`ClO_(2)` in alkaline solution undergoes disproportionation

C

`ClO_(2)` is diamagnetic in nature

D

`ClO_(2)` is a yellow gas but deep red liquid

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, D
`ClO_(2)` is powerful oxidising agent, also strong chlorinating agent. Its bleaching power is almost 30 times stronger than `Cl_(2)*IN` alkaline solution undergoes disproportionation
`2ClO_(2)+2NaOH to NaClO+NaClO_(3)+H_(2)O`
unpaired electron that's why paramagnetic.
