    The correct answer among the options os the third one. The disproportionate substance has an oxidation number of zero. In a disproportionation reaction is one which a single substance is oxidized and as well reduced. An example is:

    2NaOH+Cl2-->NaCl+NaCLO+H2O

    From a charge of 0 of Cl into - 1 and + 1.
