Ekg Memes

Chemistry students know the terror! That chaotic EKG pattern is what happens when your lab partner compliments your "almond perfume" - which is actually the sweet scent of hydrogen cyanide (HCN). The compound smells distinctly like almonds and is extremely lethal. Your heart's about to flatline faster than your grade in organic chemistry! This is why chemists never sniff directly from the beaker. Remember kids: if your lab suddenly smells like a delicious baking session, you're either near the cafeteria or about to make a very dramatic exit from science class.
