Question

The reaction, ( textM) text2+ ( textaq) text+M ( texts) leftharpoons ( text2M) text+ ( textaq) is an example of: (A) Reduction (B) Oxidation (C) Comproportionation (D) Disproportionation

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

The reaction, in which two or more species undergo reduction as well as oxidation to give a single species are called comproportionation reaction. This is reverse of disproportionation reaction.

(M)^{2+} (aq) +M (s) ⇌ (2M)^{+} (aq)

Reduction

M^{+ 2} + e^{-} \to M

M \to M^{+} + e^{-}

Q. The reaction, (M)2+(aq)+M(s)⇌(2M)+(aq) is an example of:

Reduction

Oxidation

Comproportionation

Disproportionation

The reaction, in which two or more species undergo reduction as well as oxidation to give a single species are called comproportionation reaction. This is reverse of disproportionation reaction. (M)2+(aq)+M(s)⇌(2M)+(aq) Reduction M+2+e−→M M→M++e−

Q. The reaction,
$(M)^{2+} (aq) +M (s) ⇌ (2M)^{+} (aq)$
is an example of:

The reaction, in which two or more species undergo reduction as well as oxidation to give a single species are called comproportionation reaction. This is reverse of disproportionation reaction.
$(M)^{2+} (aq) +M (s) ⇌ (2M)^{+} (aq)$
Reduction $M^{+ 2} + e^{-} \to M$
$M \to M^{+} + e^{-}$
