Cartain materials such as turpentine oil, unsaturated organic compound, phosophorus, metals such as `Zn`, and `Pb`, etc., can absorb `O_(2)` from air in the presence of `H_(2)O`, which is converted to absorb `O_(2)` from air in the presence of `H_(2)O`, which is converted to `H_(2)O_(2)`. This is called autoxidation. Intermolecular redox reactions are those in which one molecule is oxidised and the other is reduced. Intramolecular redox reactions are those in which oen atom of a molecule is oxidised and the other atom is reduced.  Which of the following statements about the reaction is`//`are correct?  `2AsCl_(4)^(ө)+3Znrarr2Au+3Zn^(2+)+8Cl^(ө)`
