The element that has 32 protons in its nucleus is GERMANIUM.
The elements in the periodic table are arranged in the order of increasing atomic number. The atomic number of an element is actually the number of protons in that element. For the question given above, the atomic number of germanium is 32, this implies that it has 32 protons in its nucleus. For a neutral atom, the number of proton and electron in the atom is the same. Thus, germanium also has 32 electrons.
Consequently, what happens when gas obtained by heating slaked lime and ammonium chloride is passed through copper sulphate solution? The HCl in the gas mixture will form hydrochloric and the H+ will react with some of the NH3(aq), forming NH4^+, and with some of the SO4^2-, forming HSO4^-.
