Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

An energy diagram for a chemical reaction is an energy vs. reaction coordinate graph that informs how a reaction is carried out in terms of the energy of the reactants, products, and intermediate states.

The reactants are drawn on the left, since initially the energy they possess is described in the diagram, followed by the different transition states where bonds are broken or formed, to give rise to the products, which are generally drawn on the right.
