Solution

The correct option is C Disproportionation reaction
Disproportionation reaction is the reaction in which same element undergoes both oxidation and reduction to form two different products.In this reaction, chlorine is oxidised from +1 in $C l O^{-}$ to +5 in $C l O_{3}^{-}$ as well as reduced to -1 in $C l^{-}$ .So this is an example of disproportionation reaction.
