Options

  1. A2KMnO4→K2MnO4+MnO2+O22{KMnO}_{4} \to {K}_{2}{MnO}_{4} + {MnO}_{2} + {O}_{2}
  2. B2MnO4−+10I−+16H+→2Mn2++5I2+8H2O2{MnO}_{4}^{-} + 10{I}^{-} + 16{H}^{+} \to 2{Mn}^{2 +} + 5{I}_{2} + 8{H}_{2}O
  3. C2CuBr→CuBr2+Cu2CuBr \to CuB{r}_{2} + Cu
  4. D2NaBr+Cl2→2NaCl+Br22NaBr + {Cl}_{2} \to 2NaCl + {Br}_{2}

Correct answer

C. 2CuBr→CuBr2+Cu2CuBr \to CuB{r}_{2} + Cu

Step-by-step solution

Disproportionation reaction: In this type of reaction, same elemental species gets oxidised as well as reduced.

\overset{+ 1}{\text{Na}}\overset{- 1}{\text{Br}} + \overset{0}{{\text{Cl}_{2}} \to 2\overset{+ 1}{\text{Na}}\overset{- 1}{\text{Cl}} + \overset{0}{{\text{Br}_{2}} -not disproportionate,

\left[2K\overset{+ 7}{Mn}{O}_{4} \to {K}_{2}\overset{+ 6}{Mn}{O}_{4} + \overset{+ 4}{Mn}{O}_{2} + {O}_{2}\right] -notdisproportionate,</p><p>not disproportionate,</p><p>2\overset{+ 7}{Mn}{O}_{4}^{-} + 10{J}^{-} + 16{H}^{+} \to 2\overset{+ 2}{Mn} + S{I}_{2} + 8{H}_{2}O -not disproportionate
