Dear student,
Statements are-
No table is wood.
Some woods are chairs.
All chairs are stones.
Conclusions says "No stone is table." if we do not have any information regarding the relationship of Stone with Table, then it is the doubtful situation and in syllogism doubtful is said to be wrong. Hence not follow.
The another conclusion says "Some stones are woods" This will be true as some woods are chair and all chairs are stone.
