Consider the reaction: 6NaOH +3Cl2 -------> 5NaCl + A + 3H2O. The oxidation number of chlorine in &ldquo;A&rdquo; is:(EAMCET 2001 M) 1) Iron 2) Carbon 3) Mercury 4) Nickel

Sunil Kumar FP · Accepted Answer

3Cl2 +6NaOH --> NaClO3 +5NaCl +3H2OIt is a disproportionation reaction. . Disproportionation is the simultaneous oxidation and reduction of the same species.In terms of oxidation state changes, the chlorine disproportionates from 6 Cl (0, element) to 5 Cl (-1, chloride ion) plus 1 Cl [+5, chlorate (V)ion ] Overall 5 electrons gained,The 'chlorine' in the chlorate ion disproportionates from 3 Cl(+1) to 2 Cl(-1, chloride ion) plus 1Cl(+5, chlorate(V) ion). Overall 4 electrons gainedthus its oxidation number is +5
