Answer:
A disproportionation reaction is when a multiatomic species whose pertinent element has a specific oxidation state gets oxidized and reduced in two separate half-reactions, yielding two other products containing the same pertinent element. A convenient example is Mn2O3 becoming Mn2+ and MnO2 .

Answer:
A reaction in which the same species is both oxidised and reduced.
Explanation:
A great example is chlorine mixing with water.
Cl2+H2O→HCl+HClO
Elemental chlorine (Cl2) has a redox number of 0.
In HCl, it has a redox number of -1
And in HClO it has a redox number of +1
Therefore chlorine has been both oxidised and reduced in the same reaction. This is disproportionation.
