Final answer:

False. In a chromatic scale on the piano, you would play every key going up by a semitone.

Step-by-step explanation:

False. When playing a chromatic scale on the piano, you would play every key going up 1 semitone (half step). A chromatic scale consists of all twelve keys within an octave, including both white and black keys. This means that you would play all the white and black keys in succession, going up or down the piano.
