Why aqueous solution of borax reacts with two moles of acids ?
Aqueous solution of borax reacts with two moles of acids this is because of formation of 2mol each of Na[B(OH)4]¯and B(OH)3of which only Na[B(OH)4]¯ reacts with acid. The chemical reaction given as below:
Na2B4O7 + 7H2O ⟶ 2B(OH)3 + 2Na[B(OH)4]
B(OH)3 or H3BO3 is an acid and does not react with acid. Hence Na[B(OH)4] reacts with acid.

Why the C-C bond length in graphite is shorter than C-C bond length of diamond?
Graphite has carbon in sp2 hybrid state (33.3 % s character) but diamond has carbon in sp3 hybrid state (25 % s characrer). More is the percentage of s characters, (by Bent rule) more is the bond multiplicity and hence, shorter the bond is. Thus carbon-carban bond in graphite has double bond character but has a single bond character in diamond. Hence, C-C bond length in graphite is shorter than than in diamond.
