Rational Number Space is Completely Normal

Theorem

Let $\struct {\Q, \tau_d}$ be the rational number space under the Euclidean topology $\tau_d$.


Then $\struct {\Q, \tau_d}$ is a completely normal space.


Proof

From Euclidean Space is Complete Metric Space, a Euclidean space is a metric space.

From Metric Space fulfils all Separation Axioms it follows that $\struct {\Q, \tau_d}$ is a completely normal space.

$\blacksquare$
