Answer:

A single compound reacts with itself.

Explanation:

Disproportionation is a chemical reaction,most times a redox reaction, in which a molecule is transformed into two or more dissimilar products. In a disproportionation reaction, the species are simultaneously oxidized and reduced to form at least two different products.

A typical example of a specie that disproportionate is the copper I ion as shown below;

2Cu^+(aq) ------> Cu(s) + Cu^2+(aq)

The two oxidation states of copper formed in the disproportionation are Cu(0) and copper (II).
