3HClO⇌2HCl+HClO3
It is a disproportionation reaction of hypochlorous acid where the oxidation number of chlorine from +1 to −1
Higher is Oxidation no. more is effective nuclear charge, lesser is size.
The disproportionation of hypochlorous acid gives HCl and HClO3.
Hence option D is correct.
Hope it helps you .
Please please please mark as brilliant answer.
