Question

what is disproportionation reaction
​

Answer 1

In chemistry, disproportionation, sometimes called dismutation, is a redox reaction in which one compound of intermediate oxidation state converts to two compounds, one of higher and one of lower oxidation states

Answer 2

$\sf\huge{\underline{\underline\pink{AnsWeR}}}$

☕ 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 .
