    Solution:

    The above statement is false.
    Balancing a reaction means making the number of atoms the same on both reactants and products. To do so, coefficients need to be added to the chemical equation. Generally, we use fixed steps to balance the reactants and products. To balance the chemical equation, coefficients are used. Basically, coefficients tell us how many atoms or molecules are involved in the reaction.
    The corrected statement would be,“ A balance of reaction means to make the number of atoms the same on both reactants and products”.
