    Question

    Suppose S is an infinite set. Assuming that the axiom of choice holds,

    which of the following is true?

    ​​​

    A.

    S is in bijection with set of rational numbers.

    B.

    S is in set of real numbers.

    C.

    D.

    S is in bijection with power set of S .

    Correct option is C

    Result : necessary condition required for two sets to be in bijection is that there cardinality is same .

    Now,

    (i) Let S = R(set of real numbers) , then it cannot be in bijection with set of rational numbers as cardinality of set of rational numbers is less than that of real numbers .

    (ii) Let S = Q (set of rationals) then option 2nd will also be incorrect .
