Explanation:
Cl2 disproportionate in alkaline medium forming chloride ion (Cl-) and hypochlorite (ClO-) ion.
Cl2 + 2OH- →Cl- + ClO- + H2O
b) Compound x can be diborane since it has both type of bonds : 3c-2e and 2c-2e

(i) when excess of ammonia is treated with diborane, borazine is formed which is colourless liquid and has aromatic smell. It is isostructural with benzene.
3B2H6 + 6NH3 →3B3N3H6 + 12H2

(ii) And when diborane is treated with ammonia at high temperature , compound called boron nitride (BN) is formed which is a hard substance.
B2H6 + 2NH3 →2BN + 6H2
