True. The chemical reaction is indeed balanced.

To check if a chemical reaction is balanced, we need to ensure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation.

Let's break down the reaction and count the number of atoms on each side:

On the left side:
C (Carbon): 2 atoms
H (Hydrogen): 6 atoms
O (Oxygen): 3 atoms

On the right side:
C (Carbon): 2 atoms
H (Hydrogen): 6 atoms
O (Oxygen): 8 atoms

Since the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides, the chemical equation is balanced.
