Question

why will ClO4 with -1 charge not show disproportionation reaction ?

Open in App
Solution

Disproportionation Reactions:

  • A special type of redox reaction in which an element in one oxidation state is simultaneously oxidized or reduced.

So, in ClO4-1, Cl is in its maximum oxidation state that is +7, so it can not undergo disproportionation reaction because it can not further oxidized.
