A chemical change has occured if the number of atoms is greater after the reaction than it was before the reaction.

False

Explanation:

It is not correct to assert that a chemical change has occurred if the number of atoms is greater after the reaction than it was before the reaction.

For every chemical reaction, the law of conservation of mass must be strictly adhered.

The law states that "during a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed, atoms are simply rearranged".

By the virtue of this law, the number of atoms at the beginning and the end of the reaction must remain the same for this law to be applicable.
