`NaOH` gives disproportionation reaction with

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The reaction is disproportionation in nature because chlorine undergoes decrease as well as increase in oxidation states.
`overset(O)Cl_(2)+2NaOH overset("Cold") to Na overset(-1)(Cl)+Na overset(+1) (ClO)+H_(2)O`
`overset(O) (Cl_(2)) +6NaOH overset("Hot") to 5Na overset(-1)(Cl)+Na overset(+5)(ClO_(3)) +3H_(2)O`
