Recently, I encountered a problem which reads,

"Oxidation states 0, +I, and +III of Chlorine are susceptible to disproportionation. Explain."

I haven't been able to find out a possible explanation. Please help. My exams are just around the corner.

Think about stability of other oxidation states.
