Solution

The correct option is D disproportionation reaction
The reaction $3 C l O (a q)^{-} \to C l O_{3} (a q)^{-} + 2 C l (a q)^{-}$ is an example of disproportionation reaction.
In this reaction, chlorine is oxidized as well as reduced.
The oxidation states of chlorine in $C l O (a q)^{-}, C l O_{3} (a q)^{-}$ and $C l (a q)^{-}$ are $+ 1, + 5$ and $- 1$ respectively.
