Question

the hydrolysis of which compound is an example of disproportionating reaction​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide involves both the oxidation and reduction of oxygen. Therefore, we can conclude that the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is an example of disproportionation.

Answer 2

The hydrolysis of CHLORINE is an example of disproportionation reaction​.

- The hydrolysis of chlorine is given as:

Cl2 + H2O → HCl + HOCl

- The oxidation no of chlorine in Cl2 is 0.

- The oxidation no of chlorine in HCl is -1.

- The oxidation no of chlorine in HOCl is +1.

- Since chlorine is getting oxidised and reduced in the hydrolysis reaction, it is a disproportionation reaction​.
