Identify the false statement.
- AA non-empty subset $H$ of group $G$ is a subgroup of $G$ if and only if for every a, $b \in H \rightarrow a * b^{-1} \in H$
- BThe intersection of two subgroups of a group $G$ is again a subgroup.
- Correct answerCA group of order three is not abelian
- DIf in a group $F,(a b)^{2}=a^{2} b^{2}, \forall a, b \in G$ then $G$ is abelian
Solution
It is a false option because every group of order 3 is abelian because it is closed as well.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
