Answer: The element is Strontium.
Step-by-step explanation:
Atomic number is defined as the number of electrons or number of protons that are present in an element.
Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons
If an element has a positive charge, it means that the electrons are lost which were earlier present.
Thus, the total number of electrons in the given element becomes = 36 + 2 = 38
And the element which has 38 electrons means that it has an atomic number of 38.
Hence, the element is Strontium.
