The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given reactions is a comproportionation reaction, we first need to understand the definition and characteristics of such reactions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Comproportionation Reaction**: - A comproportionation reaction occurs when two reactants containing the same element in different oxidation states react to form a product where the oxidation state of that element is the same. 2. **Identify the Options**: - We will analyze the provided options (A, B, C, D) to find the one that fits the definition of a comproportionation reaction. 3. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Option A**: Check if it has the same element in different oxidation states. - **Option B**: Check if it has the same element in different oxidation states. - **Option C**: Check if it has the same element in different oxidation states. - **Option D**: Check if it has the same element in different oxidation states. 4. **Examine Option B**: - In option B, if we have Ag in +2 and 0 oxidation states, and they combine to form Ag with a +1 oxidation state, this satisfies the criteria for a comproportionation reaction: - Reactants: Ag(+2) and Ag(0) - Product: Ag(+1) - Here, Ag(+2) is reduced to Ag(+1) and Ag(0) is oxidized to Ag(+1). 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, Option B is the correct answer as it demonstrates a comproportionation reaction. ### Final Answer: **Option B is a comproportionation reaction.**
