The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given reactions is not a disproportionation reaction, we need to analyze each reaction and check if the same element is undergoing both oxidation and reduction. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Disproportionation Reaction**: A disproportionation reaction is a type of redox reaction where an element in a single oxidation state is simultaneously oxidized and reduced to form two different products with different oxidation states. 2. **Analyzing Reaction I**: \[ NH_4NO_3 \overset{\Delta}{\rightarrow} N_2O + H_2O \] - In ammonium nitrate (NH₄NO₃), nitrogen has an oxidation state of +1. - In nitrous oxide (N₂O), the oxidation state of nitrogen is +1 as well. - Since there is no change in the oxidation state of nitrogen, this reaction does not involve both oxidation and reduction. - **Conclusion**: This is **not** a disproportionation reaction. 3. **Analyzing Reaction II**: \[ P_4 \overset{\Delta}{\rightarrow} PH_3 + HPO_2^{\circ} \] - In P₄, the oxidation state of phosphorus is 0. - In phosphine (PH₃), the oxidation state of phosphorus is -3. - In hypophosphorous acid (HPO₂), the oxidation state of phosphorus is +1. - Here, phosphorus is being oxidized (from 0 to +1) and reduced (from 0 to -3). - **Conclusion**: This is a disproportionation reaction. 4. **Analyzing Reaction III**: \[ PCl_5 \overset{\Delta}{\rightarrow} PCl_3 + Cl_2 \] - In phosphorus pentachloride (PCl₅), phosphorus has an oxidation state of +5. - In phosphorus trichloride (PCl₃), phosphorus has an oxidation state of +3. - Chlorine in Cl₂ has an oxidation state of 0. - Here, phosphorus is reduced (from +5 to +3) but chlorine is not being oxidized and reduced simultaneously. - **Conclusion**: This is **not** a disproportionation reaction. 5. **Analyzing Reaction IV**: \[ IO_3^{-} + I^{-} \rightarrow I_2 \] - In iodate (IO₃⁻), iodine has an oxidation state of +5. - In iodide (I⁻), iodine has an oxidation state of -1. - In I₂, the oxidation state of iodine is 0. - Here, iodine is being reduced (from +5 to 0) and iodide is being oxidized (from -1 to 0). - **Conclusion**: This is a disproportionation reaction. ### Final Conclusion: The reactions that are **not** disproportionation reactions are: - Reaction I: \( NH_4NO_3 \rightarrow N_2O + H_2O \) - Reaction III: \( PCl_5 \rightarrow PCl_3 + Cl_2 \) Thus, the correct answer is that the reactions that are **not** disproportionation reactions are **I and III**.
