If an element is more reactive, is it more likely to be found as an element or a compound?

It is more likely to be found as a COMPOUND, as it is more reactive, by the time we found them, they're already reacted with other elements or compounds to form new compounds.
Example is oxygen, it is very reactive, therefore we often found oxygen in water, which is H2O, in earth, instead of just pure oxygen.

Calculate the amount of heat required for the evaporation of 105.0 g of water at 100.0 c
son4ous [18]
To determine the amount of heat needed to evaporate a certain amount of water at its boiling point, we use the equation,

                  H = m(Hv)

where H is the heat, m is the mass (in grams), and Hv is the latent heat of vaporization. Substituting the known values,

                 H = (105 g)(540 cal/g)

                  H = 56700 cal

                H = 56.7 kcal

Answer: 56.7 kcal

Bromelain works by breaking the enzymes that cause browning into smaller molecules. Explain how the reaction that breaks up the
kenny6666 [7]

Bromelain separates the amino acids in the enzymes that cause browning by breaking the peptide bonds.

Explanation:

Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy.

An enzyme from the stem of pineapple is called Bromelain also known as cysteine protease. It is obtained by cutting pineapple and filtering the juice of it.

Bromelain extract is a mixture of protein-digesting enzymes and several other substances in smaller quantities.

The monomers in Bromelain are numerous sub units of Sulfhydryl proteases. A free sulfyhydryl group of a cysteine amino acid side chain is required for function. By seperating proteins from amino acids the reaction  that breaks up enzymes occurs.

Potassium hydroxide, KOH, is considered a _____________ in an acid-base reaction because it ___________ a hydrogen ion to/from t
soldi70 [24.7K]
<span>Answer: Potassium hydroxide, KOH, is considered a BASE in an acid-base reaction because it ACCEPTS a hydrogen ion from the other reactant.

According to </span><span>Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, Base is a specie which accepts proton (H</span>⁺) while, Acid is a specie which donate proton.

Bases may contain a negative charge or lone pair of electrons, while, Acids contain positive charge or a neutral atom with incomplete octet.

In given statement KOH is acting as a base because it contains a negatively charged hydroxyl group which can accept proton from a acid, i.e. 

                                    KOH    →     K⁺  +  OH⁻

Reaction of OH⁻ with any acid,

                         K⁺    +   OH⁻  +   HCl      →       H₂O   +   KCl
