Let $$X$$ and $$Y$$ be two independent random variables. Which one of the relations $$b/w$$ expectation $$(E),$$ variance $$\left( {{V_{ar}}} \right)$$ and covariance $$\left( {{C_{ov}}} \right)$$ given below is FALSE?

$$E\left( {XY} \right) = E\left( X \right)E\left( Y \right)$$

$${\mathop{\rm cov}} \left( {X,Y} \right) = 0$$

$$Var\left( {X + Y} \right) = Var\left( X \right) + Var\left( Y \right)$$

$$\,E\left( {{X^2}{Y^2}} \right) = {\left( {E\left( X \right)} \right)^2}\,{\left( {E\left( Y \right)} \right)^2}$$
