Answer

False.

Work Step by Step

$g\left( x \right)={{\log }_{2}}x$ Consider the logarithmic function of the form ${{\log }_{a}}f\left( x \right)$, $f\left( x \right)>0$. Here, $x>0$. Therefore the domain of the function is $x>0$ that is, $\left( 0,\infty \right)$. But it is stated that the domain is $\left[ 0,\infty \right)$. Therefore, the statement is false.
