In the reacion , `3Br_(2)+6CO_(3)^(2-)+3H_(2)Orarr5Br^(-)+BrO_(3)^(-)+6HCO_(3)^(-)`A. Bromine is reduced and carbonate ion is oxidised.B. Bromine undergoes disproportionation.C. Bromine is reduced and water is oxidised.D. Only water is oxidised to carbonic acid.

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`3Br_(2)+6CO_(3)^(2-)+3H_(2)Orarr 5 Br^(-)+BrO_(3)^(-)+6HCO_(3)^(-)`
Here `Br_(2)` is both reduced and oxidised.
`Br_(2)(0)rarr Br^(-)(-1)` (reduction)
`Br_(2)(0) rarr BrO_(3)^(-) (+5)` ( oxidation)
