Hence, option (iii) and (iv) are the correct answers.
The given reaction is as below-
P4+3OH- +3H2O→PH3 + 3H2PO2-
The above reaction is a kind of disproportionate reaction in which phosphorous is being reduced as well as oxidized whereas hydrogen remains same in +1 oxidation state.

Option (ii), (iii) and (iv) are the correct answers.
Elements that are having only s-electrons in the valence shell do not show more than one oxidation state (shows only one oxidation state of +1). Hence, (b), (c) having incompletely filled d-orbital's in the outermost shell show variable oxidation states. Element with outer electronic configuration as 3d1 4S2 shows variable oxidation states of +2 and +3 and the element with outer electronic configuration as 3d24S2 shows variable oxidation states of +2, +3 and +4. P-Block elements also show va

Option (iii) and (iv) is the correct answer.
The given equation is as-
Zn+2HCl→ZnCl2+H2
In this Zn has a negative E? value, which means it will undergo oxidation and will act as a reducing agent (reductant). Zn can produce H2 gas with HCl, as hydrogen has higher standard reduction potential than Zn, hydrogen will undergo reduction and will act as oxidant.

Option (iii) is the correct answer.
As, Cl, Br, I all are having -1 to +7 oxidation state. But Oxidation state of F is fixed (-1) as it is the most electronegative element and do not loose electron. Hence, it does not show disproportionate tendency.

Option (iv) is the correct answer.
Disproportionate reactions are defined as the reactions in which the same substance is oxidized as well as reduced. Here, the below reaction is given as-
2NO2 + 2OH- →NO2 -+ NO3- +H2O
In this reaction, N is both oxidized as well as reduced since O.N. of N increases from +4 in NO3−? to +5 in NO2 ? and decreases from +4 in NO to +3 in NO2−.

Option (i) is the correct answer
Let the oxidation number of central atom be 'y'.
Oxidation number of O = −2
CrO2−: y + 2 * (−2) = −1
y − 4 = −1 or y = +3
CrO42−? : y + 4 * (−2) = −2
y − 8 = −2 or y = +6
ClO3−: y + 3 * (−2) = −1
y − 6 = −1 or y = +5
MnO4−: y + 4 * (−2) = −1
y − 8 = −1 or y = +7
increasing order of oxidation number of the central atom is:
CrO2 – , ClO3 –, CrO4 2–, MnO4

Option (ii) is the correct answer.
The oxidation states are given below-
In NH2OH oxidation of N is -1.
NH4NO3 exists as NH4+.NO3-,
Thus, the oxidation state of N in NH4+ is -3 while in NO3? is +5.
In N2H4 oxidation of N is -2
In N3H oxidation of N is
