Abstract: We prove that for a free noncyclic group F, H2(hatFmathbbQ,mathbbQ) is an uncountable mathbbQ-vector space. Here hatFmathbbQ is the mathbbQ-completion of F. This answers a problem of A.K. Bousfield for the case of rational coefficients. As a direct consequence of this result it follows that, a wedge of circles is mathbbQ-bad in the sense of Bousfield-Kan. The same methods as used in the proof of the above results allow to show that, the homology H2(hatFmathbbZ,mathbbZ) is not divisible group, where hatFmathbbZ is the integral pronilpotent completion of F.
