category RMod as grothendieck category

1. Proposition

Let \(R\) be a ring and \(\mathrm{RMod}\) the category RMod. Then \(\mathrm{RMod}\) is a grothendieck category

2. Proof

2.2. b)

follows from universal property of a ring as module as for different module-homomorphism \(f,g: M \rightarrow N\) there exists an element \(m \in M\) with \(f(m) \neq g(m)\) Hence

\begin{align*} \varphi: R \rightarrow& M \\ 1 \mapsto& m \end{align*}

suffices to show that \(R\) is a seperator
