Solution:
The given statement is true.Concept- Chemical reaction and equation have different meanings. A chemical reaction involves the transformation of a reactant into new products.
A chemical reaction is symbolically depicted by a chemical equation. The reactants and products are on the left side and right side respectively. When one or more reactants are transformed into one or more new substances called products, a chemical reaction takes place. Example: When oxygen and hydrogen gas combine, water is the result. The elements involved in a reaction are represented by symbols of atoms in a chemical equation, which is a symbolic representation of a chemical reaction. In a reaction where the arrow points from reactants to products, the ratios of the reactants and products are represented numerically. Thus, it is a true statement
Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
