Chose the statements that are TRUE from the list below Group of answer choices Lactate is created by our muscles during anaerobic glycolysis, it reacts with water to form lactic acid. We add calcium carbonate to lakes after acid rain because the calcium ion is basic and will react with the acid. Ions exist alone in nature Fluorine anion is a weak base because hydrofluoric acid is a weak acid If Lake A has a limestone base and Lake B has a granite base, after each receive the same acid rain fall, Lake B will be more acidic than Lake A All salts are either acidic or basic after being dissolved in water.

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms
