    Which of the following is not a disproportionate reaction?

    A) \[4KCl{{O}_{3}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}3KCl{{O}_{4}}+KCl\]

    B) \[2C{{u}^{+}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}C{{u}^{2+}}+Cu\]

    C) \[5{{X}^{-}}+XO_{3}^{-}+6{{H}^{+}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}3{{X}_{2}}+3{{H}_{2}}O\]

    D) \[4P+3NaOH+3{{H}_{2}}O\to \]\[P{{H}_{3}}+3Na{{H}_{2}}P{{O}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] The change in oxidation numbers are
    [a] \[Cl:+\,5\to +7\] and - 1        
    [b] \[Cu:+1\to +2\] and 0
    [c] \[X:-1\to 0\]              
    [d] \[P:0\to -3\] and + 1
    In [a], [b] and [d], a single oxidation number (of the reactant atom) undergoes a simultaneous increase and decrease, but in [c], two different oxidation numbers of an atom in the reactants are not involved.
