Prove that the additive groups R and Q are not isomorphic
Proof. Assume that R and Q are isomorphic. Then there exists a mapping
ϕ:Q⟶R
which is bijective and is a group homomorphism. Let x∈R such that ϕ(2)=x and q∈Q such that ϕ(q)=x. Then
ϕ(q)2=ϕ(q2)=x=ϕ(2).
Since ϕ is injective, we have that q2=2. So this means that q=2, which isn’t possible in Q, a contradiction.
Therefore, the additive groups R and Q are not isomorphic.
