The decomposition of \(\mathrm{\mathrm{KClO}_{3}}\) to \(\mathrm{\mathrm{KCl}}\) and \(\mathrm{\mathrm{O}_{2}}\) on heating is an example of
1 Intermolecular redox change
2 Intra-molecular redox change
3 Disproportionation
4 Auto redox change
Explanation:
\(\mathrm{2 \mathrm{KClO}_{3} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{KCl}+3 \mathrm{O}_{2}}\) An intermolecular redox change is one in which one element of a compound is oxidised ( \(\mathrm{O^{2-}}\) to \(\mathrm{\left.\mathrm{O}_{2}^{0}\right)}\) and one element is reduced \(\mathrm{\left(\mathrm{Cl}^{5+}\right.}\) to \(\mathrm{\left.\mathrm{Cl}^{1-}\right)}\).
