4 KClO3 (aq) ---> 3 KClO4 (s) + KCl (aq)
This is anoxidation-reduction(redox) reaction:
Cl (+5)+6e - Cl (-1) (reduction)
3Cl (+5) -6e - 3Cl (+7) (oxidation)
KClO 3 is both anoxidizingand areducingagent (disproportionation (dismutation)).
This is aprecipitationreaction:KClO 4 is the formed precipitate.

In each case, 6 mole of electrons are exchanged whether we consider oxidation or reduction.
so n factor is 6
so n factor is 6
