• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

• Each element in the periodic table is represented by its element symbol and atomic number.
• The initial letter or first two letters indicate the majority of the elements, but there are a few outliers.
• Example: Hydrogen $\left(\mathrm{H}\right)$, Helium$\left(\mathrm{He}\right)$
• As a result, a symbol is a short form for representing an element
• Hence the given statement is true.
