What is a disproportionation reaction? Use the following reduction potentials ClO3- + 3H+ + 2e- HClO2

Question:

What is a disproportionation reaction? Use the following reduction potentials
ClO3- + 3H+ + 2e- → HClO2 + H2O ϐo = 1.21 V
HClO2 + 2H+ + 2e- → HClO + H2O ϐo = 1.65 V
To predict whether HClO2 will disproportionate.
