What sorts of information can you draw from the following reaction: (CN)2(g)+2OH(aq) →CN^-(aq)+CNO^-(aq)+H2 O(l)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The reaction is disproportionation reaction ie, same substance is getting oxidised and reduced. Cyanogen .(CN)., is getting oxidised to, .CNO^-. and getting reduced to .CN^-.
