Answer:

The reaction of chlorine with cold sodium hydroxide solution is a *disproportionation reaction*

Step-by-step explanation:

One atom is reduced because its oxidation state has decreased; the other is oxidized. This is a good example of disproportionation reaction in which a single substance is both oxidized and reduced.
