    The reaction, \[3ClO_{(aq)}^{-}\xrightarrow{{}}ClO_{3(aq)}^{-}+2Cl_{(aq)}^{-}\] is an example of

    A)  oxidation reaction

    B)  reduction reaction

    C)  disproportionate reaction

    D)  decomposition reaction

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[3ClO_{(aq)}^{-}\xrightarrow{{}}ClO_{3(aq)}^{-}+2Cl_{(aq)}^{-}\] It is an example of disproportionate reaction because the same species \[(Cl{{O}^{-}})\]is being oxidized to \[ClO_{3}^{-}\] as well as reduced to \[C{{l}^{-}}\].
