Which statement is false?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: {0} is an empty set.
The set {0} contains the element 0, so it has one element and is a singleton set, not an empty set. The empty set is written as ∅ or {}, and it contains no elements. Statement A is true because the empty set is finite with cardinality zero. Statement C correctly describes equal sets, and statement D expresses the unending nature of an infinite set.
