lol i guess it was CL2 and H2O...
So shouldnt it be disproportionation because

Cl2 + H2O ---> HCl + HCLO

Oxidation State of chlorine ----> HCl
0 -1
chlorine ----> HClO
0 +1

Since Cl2 is both oxidized and reduced, it should be a dispropotionation reaction?

it was not Cl2 it said Chloride which means it was in a compound,So it was hydrolysis

I also thought it was chlorine :( Mummy. And and in the last question last parts. I am such a silly head that i accidently thought that of aldehyde. So aage ke structures main bhi aldehyde ke reactions hi kare. Will i get marks on ecf?? :(

Hydrolysis is definitely the right answer. I've seen it written in many places, including chemguide. I didn't know though and got that wrong. Oh well, it was just 1 mark. :|

what did you guys get for the mole question?
i think i got something like 3.33x10^-3 or sth and when they said atoms,we had to multiply it by 2 right?
