Which of the following species do not show disproportionation reaction ?

Options

A. `ClO^(-)`
B. `ClO_(2)^(-)`
C. `ClO_(3)^(-)`
D. `ClO_(4)^(-)`

Answer

D

Explanation

In disproportionation reaction, one element of a compound will simultaneously get reduced and oxidised. In `ClO_4^(-)` , oxidation number of Cl is +7 and it can not increase it further. So, `ClO_4^(-)` will not get oxidised and so will not undergo disproportionation reaction.
