answered-by-expert Expert Answer
Disproportionation reactions:
 
 This is a special type of redox reaction in which an element in one oxidation state is simultaneously oxidised and reduced.
 
 This reactant with three oxidation states is in the intermediate oxidation state and both higher and lower oxidation states of that element are formed in the reaction.
 
Example 1: The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is where oxygen experiences disproportionation.
 
 
Here, the oxygen of peroxide, which is present in the −1 state, is converted to the zero oxidation state in O2 and decreases to the −2 oxidation state in H2O.
