Chemistry in Daily LifeYou have two beakers on your lab table. Beaker #1 contains 32.07 g of sulfur and Beaker #2 contains 74.92 g of arsenic (As). Which beaker contains the greatest number of atoms? Choose the best answer.
Beaker #1 because one sulfur atom weighs less than one arsenic atom so you need more of the sulfur atoms to fill the beaker.
Beaker #1 because it contains more moles of sulfur atoms than the number of moles of arsenic atoms
in Beaker #2.
Beaker #2 because arsenic has a greater mass than sulfur.
Beaker #2 because it contains more moles of arsenic atoms than the number of moles of sulfur atoms in Beaker #1.
Beakers #1 and #2 contain the same number of atoms because there is one mole in each.

Chemistry in Daily LifeLemon juice can be used to remove the odor of fish on a person's hands after cleaning fish.
The chemical explanation for this is that the
pleasant odor of the lemon juice covers the fishy odor
acid in the lemon juice reacts with the odor-causing amines to form an odorless ammonium compound
lemon juice dilutes the odor-causing amines
O lemon juice removes the bitter flavor often associated with nitrogen compounds
