People who are lactose intolerant can take a lactase pill before having milk or milk products. Lactase is an enzyme that breaks down lactose, the sugar in milk. Your friend wonders if it is better to take Brand X lactase, which recommends taking one large pill, or Brand Y lactase, which recommends taking two smaller pills. The pills are identical, except for their size. Therefore, the amount of lactase is the same for 1 pill of Brand X and 2 pills of Brand Y. What do you suggest to your friend if he wants the pills to dissolve quickly so they act faster?

a)

Take Brand X, because the larger pill has a greater surface area than the two smaller pills from Brand Y, so they will dissolve faster.

b)

Take Brand X, because the larger pill has a smaller surface area than the two smaller pills from Brand Y, so they will dissolve faster.

c)

Take Brand Y, because two smaller pills have a greater surface area than the single pill from Brand X so they will dissolve faster.

d)

Take Brand Y, because two smaller pills have a smaller surface area than the single pill from Brand X so they will dissolve faster.
