Suppose we have a sample space with $n$ outcomes $\Omega = \{\omega_1, \omega_2, \omega_3, ..., \omega_n\}.$ Which of the following statements about the corresponding elementary events $E_1 = \{\omega_1\}, E_2=\{\omega_2\},..., E_n=\{\omega_n\}$ is not correct?

Select one option from the list

Several elementary events may occur simultaneously.

The union of all elementary events is the sample space itself.

The collection of all elementary events is not an event space.

The intersection of any number of elementary events is always empty.
