The chemical formula of hydrocortisone valerate is C26H38O6. First, we determine the molar mass of the substance by adding up all the products of the number of atoms and the molar mass of atoms as shown below.
                        molar mass = 26(12) + 38(1) + 6(16) = 446 g/mol
Since, there are 26 atoms of carbon in each molecule, the mass of carbon in each mole is 
                     mass of carbon = (26)(12) = 312
Obtaining the percent by mass of carbon,
                           % by mass of carbon = (312/446) x 100 % 
                                                                 = 69.955%
Thus, the percent by mass of carbon in hydrocortisone valerate is approximately 69.96%.

How many moles of pcl5 can be produced from 28.0 g of p4 (and excess cl2)?
BARSIC [14]
P₄ + 10Cl₂ ---> 4PCl₅
stoichiometry of P₄ to PCl₅ is 1:4
number of moles of P₄ reacted - 28.0 g / 124 g/mol = 0.22 mol 
Cl₂ is in excess therefore P₄ is the limiting reactant, amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present 
according to molar ratio of 1:4
number of PCl₅ moles formed  -0.22 mol x 4 = 0.88 mol 
0.88 mol of PCl₅ is formed

when two amino acid monomers are positioned so that the carboxyl group of one is adjacent to the amino group of the other, they
zalisa [80]

They can be joined through a Peptide bond

The amino acids serve as the foundation for proteins. Water is produced when the amino acids are linked to form a lengthy chain of acids via amino and carboxyl. The main protein is made up of these long chain amino acids.

When the carboxyl group of one molecule combines with the amino group of the other molecule, a molecule of water is released, and a peptide bond is created between the two molecules (H2O). This condensation event, sometimes referred to as a dehydration synthesis reaction, typically takes place between amino acids.

<h3>What is a Peptide bond ?</h3>

The carboxyl group of one amino acid is joined to the amino group of another to produce a peptide bond, also known as a eupeptide bond. In essence, a peptide link is an amide-type covalent chemical bond.
