Solution
The correct option is C disproportionation reaction A disproportionation reaction is a redox reaction in which the same atom is oxidized in one molecule and reduced in another molecule.
The oxidation state of Cl changes from +1 in ClO− to +3 in ClO2− and −1 in Cl− respectively.
2ClO−(aq)→ClO2−+Cl− is an example of diproportionation reaction.
