38:  

 Which of the following statements is FALSE ?

A.

The set of rational numbers is an abelian group under addition

B.

The set of rational integers is an abelian group under addition

C.

The set of rational numbers form an abelian group under multiplication

D.

None of these

 
 

Option: D

Explanation :

Set of rational numbers  form an abelian group under multiplication .  It satisfies with 0 also.  As we know abelian group follow some properties:
1. associative i.e. ao(boc)= (aob)oc  for 0   0*(1*2)=0 and (0*1)*2=0 so this property has prove 
2. If an element 4 belongs to  G  such that 0o4=0 for all 0 belongs to G 
3. For any a belongs to G and  b belongs to G such that aob=e     for ex:      a=0 b=2  For * 0*2=0  and  0 is identity(e) for multiplication
4. For commutative property 0*4=4*0=0
So all properties of abelian group are followed by  0 also  so  statement is correct
So answer is (D)
