Chlorine possesses oxidation state +3 in this acid. The pure substance is unstable, disproportionating to hypo chlorous acid ( Cl oxidation state +1) and chloric acid ( Cl oxidation state +5) : 2 H ClO2 (aq) → H ClO (aq) + H ClO3 (aq) Chlorite salts such as sodium chlorite are stable conjugate bases derived from this acid. These salts are sometimes used in the production of chlorine dioxide. 2 . Preparation HClO2 can be prepared through reaction of barium chlorite and dilute sulfuric acid: Ba ( ClO2 ) 2 + H2 SO4 → Ba SO4 + 2 H ClO2 3 . Stability Chlorine is the only one of the four halogens to form an isolable acid of formula HXO2 . Fluorine does not have the bonding capacity to do so, whereas the hypothetical bromous acid and iodous acid have never been isolated and only a few salts of bromous acid, bromites, are known, and no iodites .
