Borax is actually made of two tetrahedra...

Borax is actually made of two tetrahedral and tetrahedral and two triangular units joined together and should be written as `Na_(2)[B_(4)O_(5)(OH)_(4)].8H_(2)O`
Aqueous solution containing 1 mol of borax reacts with `2` mol of acids. This is because of

A

formation of 2 mol of `B(OH)_(3)` only

B

formation of 2 mol of `[B(OH)_(4)]^(-)` only

C

formation of 1mol each of `B(OH)_(3)` and `[B(OH)_(4)]^(-)`

D

formation of `2`mol each of `[B(OH)_(4)]^(-)` and `B(OH)_(3)`, of which only `[B(OH)_(4)]^(-)` reacts with acid
