Solution
The correct option is BAg2++Ag→2Ag+ Comproportionation reaction is the opposite of disproportionation reaction. In this reaction, two reactants containing the same element (with different oxidation states) chemically combine to form a product having the same oxidation state of that element.
Thus, the two reactants containing silver with 0 and +2 oxidation states chemically combine to form two silver ions having +1 oxidation state.
