$R$-module $R=\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-2}]$ Let $R=\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-2}]$

1) Is it true that for every free $R-$module $M$ of rank=$n$ that $M$ is a free $\mathbb{Z}-$module of rank=$2n$?
2) Find two non-isomorphic $R$-modules with $19$ elements each.

For (1) I tried to begin with a basis $\{m_1,...,m_n\}$ of $M$ as a $R-$module and construct a basis $\{m_1',...,m_{2n}'\}$ of it as a $\mathbb{Z}-$module.
For (2) I have no idea.
Any hints??  
 A: For $2$ look for modules $R/I$ where $I$ is an ideal of $R$. As $R$
is a principal ideal domain, $I=\left<\alpha\right>$ for some $\alpha=a+b\sqrt{-2}$. Then $|R/\left<\alpha\right>|=|\alpha|^2=a^2+2b^2$. If we
have $\alpha=\eta\beta$ where $\eta$ is a unit in $R$. Then $\left<\alpha\right>
=\left<\beta\right>$. But the only units in $R$ are $\pm 1$. Taking $\alpha=1+3\sqrt{-2}$ and $\beta=-1+3\sqrt{-2}$, then
$|R/\left<\alpha\right>|=|R/\left<\beta\right>|=19$. Can you prove
$R/\left<\alpha\right>\not\equiv R/\left<\beta\right>$ as $R$-modules?
A: Let $M = [m_1,...,m_n]$. Then, every element of $M$ can be written uniquely as $\sum a_im_i$ where $a_i \in \mathbb Z[\sqrt -2] = b_i + c_i \sqrt{-2}$.
Clearly, $M$ is then generated by $[m_i, m_i\sqrt{-2}]$ over $\mathbb Z$.The question is : is this set linearly independent over $\mathbb Z$?
Well,  let $\sum c_im_i + \sum d_i m_i\sqrt{-2} = 0$, where $c_i,d_i$ are integers. Then, $\sum(c_i + d_i \sqrt {-2}) m_i = 0$, so by the fact that $m_i$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb Z[\sqrt{-2}]$, we get that $c_i,d_i = 0$ for all $i$, as $c_i + d_i \sqrt{-2} = 0$ for all $i$.

The second question is already answered above , but I wish to point out something important, and be more elaborate. This will result in an expanded answer.
The point is, $\frac{R}{\langle \alpha\rangle} \not \equiv \frac{R}{\langle\beta\rangle}$  as $R$- modules is important, because they are indeed isomorphic as additive groups (modules are abelian groups under addition) , having the same cardinality $19$ which is prime, so both are cyclic and we may map a generator to another generator of the additive abelian group.
What is the difference? An $R$-module homomorphism $\phi : \frac{R}{\langle \alpha\rangle} \to \frac{R}{\langle \beta\rangle}$, in addition to the fact that it is additive, also must satisfy $f(rx) = rf(x)$ for all $r \in \mathbb Z[\sqrt{-2}]$ and $x \in \frac{R}{\langle \alpha\rangle}$. 

This very key fact makes a great difference. For example, let us consider $f(1 + \langle \alpha\rangle)$. This element satisfies the fact that $(\alpha)(1 + \langle\alpha\rangle) = 0 + \langle \alpha \rangle$. Hence, it follows that $\alpha \times f(1 + \langle \alpha \rangle) = 0 + \langle \beta\rangle$. That is, if $f(1 + \langle \alpha\rangle) = c + \langle \beta\rangle$, then $\beta | \alpha c$, as $\alpha c -0 \in \langle \beta\rangle$.
The catch? Well, $\beta$ is co-prime to $\alpha$, because $a$ and $b$ have the same norm which is $19$ , a prime number, and they are not associates, so no element of non-unit norm can divide both. So $\beta | c$ (note that we are in a unique factorization domain), and consequently, we get $f(1+\langle\alpha\rangle) = 0$. If one generator maps to zero, the whole group maps to zero. Consequently, every module homomorphism between the two modules is the zero map, and therefore none is an isomorphism.
