Detailed Solution

mathop {3HCl{O_3}}limits^{ + 5} to mathop {HCl{O_2}}limits^{ + 3} + mathop {C{l_2}}limits^0 + 2{O_2} + {H_2}O

It is a disproportion reaction. HClO3 acts like both oxidant and reductant

EW of HClO3 as oxidizing agent

mathop {HCl{O_3}}limits_{ + 5} to mathop {C{l_2}}limits_O

Decrease in O state = 5

EW of HClO3 as an oxidant =84.455= 16.89
