It's easy to show that $mathbbQ$ and $mathbbQtimesmathbbQ$ are not ring isomorphic as the first one has no zero divisors where as the second one has zero divisors. But I can't find any solution in case of group isomorphism.

    More generally there's the notion of $mathbfQ$-rank of an abelian group $G$, which is obviously an isomorphism invariant. Namely, this is the maximal $k$ such that $G$ has a subgroup isomorphic to $mathbfZ^k$ ($infty$ if there's no max). Exercise: what's the $mathbfQ$-rank of $mathbfQ^n$?

In $mathbbQ$, as a group under addition, any two elements are commensurable; that is, for any $p,q$, there is some $r$ such that both $p$ and $q$ are multiples of $r$. Consequently, every finitely generated subgroup is cyclic.



The same is not true of $mathbbQtimesmathbbQ$; $(1,0)$ and $(0,1)$ are incommensurable.

    Since $Bbb ZhookrightarrowBbb Q $ is a ring epimorphism, the scalar restriction functor $operatornameMod_Bbb QtooperatornameMod_Bbb Z $ is fully faithful, hence every isomorphism of abelian groups $Bbb QtoBbb Q^2$ lifts to a $Bbb Q $-vector space isomorphism.
    Since they have different dimension as vector space, they cannot be isomorphic as abelian groups.
