Answer:
The right choice is → a reduction reaction
Explanation:
From the balanced equation
- 3CIO⁻₍aq₎ → CIO⁻ ₍aq₎ + 2Cl⁻ ₍aq₎
we can calculate the change in oxidation number of Cl in reactant and product
in reactant ClO⁻
let x= oxidation number of Cl
and oxidation number of oxygen in its compound is (-2)
and the total charge on the ClO⁻ ion = -1
- ∴x + (-2) = -1 →→→ x = +1
in product Cl⁻
let x= oxidation number of Cl
and the total charge on the Cl⁻ ion = -1
so the oxidation number of Cl decreases from +1 in reactant to -1 in product so it is reduction reaction.
But, disproportionation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which a single substance gets reduced as well as oxidized.
For a disproportionated substance , it should contain at least three oxidation states. which isn't the case here.
<u>So, the right choice is: </u>
→ a reduction reaction
