(B) The reaction of chlorine with dilute and cold sodium hydroxide is a disproportionation reaction: $Cl_2 + 2NaOH \text{ (dil. and cold)} \longrightarrow NaCl + NaOCl + H_2O$ Here,$A$ is $NaCl$ (anion is $Cl^-$) and $B$ is $NaOCl$ (anion is $OCl^-$). $Cl^-$ is the chloride ion and $OCl^-$ is the hypochlorite ion. Therefore,the correct option is $B$.
