1.

“Since H+ is highly acidic and since H2O undergoes protonation easily to give H3O+, it is likely that the latter would further react with H+ to give H4O2+ readily”. Examine this statement carefully by determining whether it is true or false and, if false, under what situation would the statement be valid. Explain.
