If every sequence $(x_{n}) \subset X$ and $(\lambda_{n}) \subset \mathbb{R}$ we have $\lim \lambda_{n}x_{n} = 0$, then $X$ is bounded 
Let $(V,\Vert \cdot \Vert)$ a normed vector space.
(a) Prove that if $A,B \subset V$ with $A$ open, then $A + B$ is open.
(b) Is there disjoint open sets $A_{1},A_{2}$ for which there is no disjoint closed sets $F_{1},F_{2}$ such that $A_{1} \subset F_{1}$ and $A_{2} \subset F_{2}$?
(c) Prove that if $X \subset V$ is bounded, then for every sequence $(x_{n}) \subset X$ and $(\lambda_{n}) \subset \mathbb{R}$ with $\lim \lambda_{n} = 0$ we have $\lim \lambda_{n}x_{n} = 0$. What about the converse?

My attempt.
(a) Let $A$ be an open set. So, $A + b = \{a+b \mid a \in A\}$ is translation, therefore, is open. But $\displaystyle A + B = \bigcup_{b \in B}(A+b)$, then $A+B$ is open.
(b) Take $A_{1} = \mathbb{R}_{>0}$ and $A_{2} = \mathbb{R}_{<0}$, because $\overline{A_{1}} = A_{1}\cup\{0\}$ and $\overline{A_{2}} = A_{2}\cup\{0\}$
(c) If $(x_{n})$ is a sequence in $X$, then $(x_{n})$ is bounded. But
$$(x_{n}) = ((x_{1,n}),(x_{2,n}),...,(x_{k,n}))$$
where each $(x_{i,n})$ is a bounded sequence in $\mathbb{R}$. Thus, $\lim \lambda_{n}x_{i,n} = 0$ for each $i$, then $\lim \lambda_{n}x_{n} = 0$.
The converse seems true, but I cannot prove. Can someone help me?
 A: Your part (a) is fine, assuming that you know translation is continuous.
Your part (b) is on the right track, but it assumes that $V$ is the continuum, whereas it should be a normed vector space. You have the right idea of separating two sets by a very small set, but you shouldn't rely on coordinates (since you don't have any coordinates...). Use the norm instead.
Your part (c) has a similar issue: unless you're in a finite dimensional space, there is neither reason nor justification for writing the sequence in coordinates. Again, you need to be using the norm. Notice that
$$\|\lambda_n x_n\| = |\lambda_n| \cdot \|x_n\| \le |\lambda_n| \sup_{x \in X} \|x\| \to 0.$$
The converse is in fact true, and can be handled similarly; choose an unbounded sequence $\{x_n\}$ and craft $\lambda_n$ depending on $x_n$ so that $\|\lambda_n x_n\| \not\to 0$. Constant norm works.
A: For the converse: suppose $X$ is not bounded. Then it contains some sequence $(x_n)$ such that $(\|x_n\|)\to\infty$ (take $x_n$ to be an example given by the negation of the definition of "bounded" with the constant set to $n$). Take $\lambda_n = \frac{1}{\|x_n\|}$. Then $(\lambda_n)\to 0$, but $(\lambda_nx_n)\not\to 0$, since $(\|\lambda_nx_n\|) = (1) \not\to 0$. Thus, taking the contrapositive, we have the converse (NB: you've got a bit missing out of the contrapositive you've given in the title: you've dropped the $\lim\lambda_n = 0$ bit). 
A: The converse is true, we'll prove it by contraposition:
Assume that $X$ is unbounded. Hence for every $n\in\mathbb{N}$ exists $x_n \in X$ such that $\|x_n\| \ge n$. Consider the sequence $(\lambda_n)_n = \left(\frac1n\right)_n$. We have $\lim_{n\to\infty} \lambda_n = 0$ but
$ \|\lambda_nx_n\| \ge 1, \forall n\in\mathbb{N}$ so it cannot converge to $0$. 
A: Your approach to part (a) is correct; to be more explicit, you could show why $A+b$ is open.
You have the right idea for part (b), but it needs to be stated a bit more generally. Let $A_1$ and $A_2$ be disjoint open balls that both have some point $z$ in their closure. Then if $F_1$, $F_2$ are closed sets containing $A_1$, $A_2$, respectively, we have $z\in F_1$ and $z\in F_2$ since $F_1\supset \overline{A_1}$ and $F_2\supset\overline{A_2}$, so $F_1$ and $F_2$ cannot be disjoint. To construct such $A_1$ and $A_2$, let $x,y$ be distinct points in $V$ with $\|x\|=\|y\|$ and consider the open balls centered at $x$ and $y$ with radius $\frac 12 \|x-y\|$. Then the point $\frac12(x+y)$ is in the closure of both of these balls.
For part (c) I will defer to the accepted answer.
