Let B be a finite commutative group without an element of order 2. Show the mapping of b to b2 is an automorphism of B. However, if |B| = infinity, does it still need to be an automorphism?

Let (G,·) be a finite group, and let S be a set with the same cardinality as G. Then there is a bijection μ:S→G . We can give a group structure to S by defining a binary operation *on S, as follows. For x,y∈ S, define x*y=z where z∈S such that μ(z) = g_{1}·g_{2}, where μ(x)=g_{1} and μ(y)=g_{2}. First prove that (S,*) is a group. Then, what can you say about the bijection μ?
