Solution

I. TRUE - Events E and F are independent. This is because the first card is replaced back into the deck before the second card is drawn. Therefore, the probability of drawing a diamond as the second card (Event F) is not affected by the result of the first draw (Event E).

II. TRUE - Events F and G are independent. The color of the first card drawn (Event G) does not affect the probability of the second card being a diamond (Event F), because the first card is replaced back into the deck.

III. FALSE - Events E and G are not mutually exclusive. Mutually exclusive events cannot occur at the same time. However, it is possible for the first card drawn to be a diamond (Event E) and for it to be red (Event G) at the same time, because diamonds are red.
