There have been ample stories of human children being raised by other
species and eventually becoming more like that animal than an actual
human. If the process could go one way, Winthrop Kellogg was sure that
it could also go the other, particularly if the animal involved was one
of our closest genetic cousins. In 1931, Kellogg received a grant for
his experiment and the timing couldn’t be better –his wife just had a
baby boy, David. This would give them the unique opportunity to raise a
baby chimp, named Gua, right along side a human baby. It didn’t take
long for the babes to bond and become best friends. Kellogg and his
wife took impeccable notes on their two “children” noting their physical
changes, emotions and how they scored on small intelligence tests. The
chimp scored notably higher on the intelligence tests due the fact that
the species matures faster than human babies. Gua picked up quite a few
human behaviors, such as walking upright and eating with a spoon, but
she failed to learn how to speak and learn simple repetition games, like
patty cake. Her emotions were also much less predictable and inclined
to change at the drop of a hat. Unfortunately, the experiment really
started to go wrong when little David started to become more chimplike
than Gua became humanlike. He only learned a few simple words and often
took to making chimp howls when he wanted something. After only nine
months, the Kelloggs gave up on Gua, concerned that David would fail to
grow up like a normal human child. In the years since this project,
plenty of people have adopted chimps as babies, proving beyond a doubt
that the animals can never act completely human –even if they are
adorable in overalls.
The appropriate number of bonds around each carbon atom are four covalent bonds
Please note that carbon has four valence electrons in its outermost shell
<h3>What is an element?</h3>
An element is a substance which cannot be split into simpler forms by an ordinary chemical process. This simply goes to say that elements are substances which cannot be decomposed into simpler substances by ordinary chemical reactions.
An atom is the smallest unit or part of an element which can take part in a chemical reaction.
On a general note, elements are classified as thus:
- Metals, non-metal, and metalloid.
- The extreme left side elements in the periodic table are metals, for example, aluminum, sodium, calcium, caesium, etc.
- However, elements on the right side are generally referred to as non-metals, carbon, chlorine, oxygen,
So therefore, the appropriate number of bonds around each carbon atom are four covalent bonds

Answer:
17.3 g Cr
Explanation:
To find the mass of chromium, you need to (1) convert moles Si to moles Cr (using the mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients) and then (2) convert moles Cr to grams Cr (using the atomic mass). It is important to arrange the conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value (0.250).
3 Si + 2 Cr₂O₃ ---> 4 Cr + 3 SiO₂

Atomic Mass (Cr): 51.996 g/mol
0.250 moles Si 4 moles Cr 51.996 g

Explanation:
The experiment of Ernest Rutherford involved the bombardment of a thin gold foil with alpha particles from a radioactive source. A zinc sulphide screen was used to follow the movement of the alpha particles.
It was discovered that most of the alpha particles followed a straight path through the gold foil. Some of them were scattered through large angles and few were even scattered in the backward direction.
Since alpha particles were heavier than electrons, they must have been deflected by very strong forces.
These experimental evidences led to the conclusions stated in the question.
