☕ what is disproportionate REACTION ?

$\huge{\orange{\boxed{\fcolorbox{lime}{cadetblue}{\pink{ANSWER}}}}}$

☕ In a disproportionation reaction, the same element is simultaneously oxidized and reduced.

☕ The reactions in which single reactant is oxidized and reduced is known as Disproporionation reactions

The disproportionation reaction is given below

• 2H₂O₂ → 2H₂O + O₂

is also a disproportionation reaction because O is reduced in forming H₂O and oxidized in forming O₂ .

EXAMPLES ;-

✨ Listed below are the examples of disproportionation reaction .

• $\bf\red{P_4~ +~ 3NaOH ~+~ 3H_2O~ \longrightarrow ~3NaH_2PO_2 ~+~ PH_3}$

• $\bf\blue{Cl_2(g)~ +~ H_2O~ (l) ~\longrightarrow~HCl (aq)~+ ~HClO(aq)~}$

• $\bf\green{2CuBr~\longrightarrow~CuBr_2~+~Cu~}$
