A whole lemon (without slices) is put in the room. Can it absorb the smell in the room?

Yes, you can.

Principle of removing odor from lemon: the odor is emitted by amines, which is weakly alkaline from the PH value. After the citric acid in lemon reacts with it, it acts as an acid-base neutralization reaction. In this way, amine can be changed into ammonium salt, which is odorless.

In addition, lemon has an aromatic effect, which can cover up the odor.
