Answer:

A) False

B) True

C) True

D) True

Explanation:

A) False. If the charge of the atom is +2 means that you have two protons more than number of electrons. If you have 36 electrons you must have <em>38 protons.</em> Also, the electrons are not in the nucleus.

B) True. The isotope of X contains 38 protons, two more than the electron number.

C) True. The mass number is the number of protons + number of neutrons.

If the mass number is 79 and there are 38 protons you must have 41 neutrons.

D) True. You can now the identity of the atom with the number of protons that is the same than atomic number. The strontium, Sr, is the atom with 38 as atomic number.

I hope it helps!

maksim [4K]
Answer:
            Oxalic Acid is and Arrhenius Acid.

Explanation:
                   According to Arrhenius Theory of acid and base, "Acid is any substance which when dissolved in water produces H⁺ Ions".

Therefore, Oxalic Acid is a diprotic substance, which is capable of donating protons in water. This acidity of oxalic acid can be dedicated to the stability of conjugate base, this stability comes from resonance of the negative charges on Oxalate ion. Below reaction shows the dissociation of Oxalic Acid into Protons and Oxalate Ion.
