The reaction `3ClO^(-)(aq)rarrClO_(3)^(-)(aq)+2Cl^(-)(aq)` an example of :

A

Oxidation reaction

B

Reduction reaction

C

Disproportionation reaction

D

Decomposition reaction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
In the given reaction, the oxidtion state of the chlorine atom change from +1 (in `ClO^(-)`) to +5 (in `ClO_(3)^(-)`) and -1 (in `Cl^(-)`). This means that chlorine is getting oxidized as well as reduced. Such reactions are called disproportionation reactions
