Want this question answered?
Momentum is always conserved. No matter what the collision, as long as you look at everything involved, momentum will always be conserved.
Momentum is always conserved in any type of collision. Energy conservation, however, is dependant on elasticity. In a perfectly elastic collision all energy is conserved.
That means that total momentum doesn't change. It is the same before and after the collision.
it is only conserved in a percectly elastic collision.
False - the thing to remember is that momentum is conserved.

In any physical process, momentum will always be conserved. Momentum is given by p = m*v. There is also something called law of conservation of momentum.

Total momentum
it is only conserved in a percectly elastic collision.

it occurs in case of inelastic collision
There is a Law of Conservation of Momentum, which states that total momentum is always conserved. In this case, that means that - assuming no additional bodies are involved - the total momentum before the collision will be the same as the total momentum after the collision. It doesn't even matter whether the collision is elastic or not.
Is it true that the law of conservation of engery states that momentum is in a collision
