Across
  1. 2. bond – a chemical bond between two atoms when one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to the other
  2. 3. forces – attractions between atoms or ions, also known as bonds; generally much stronger than intermolecular forces
  3. 5. trends – patterns of elements’ properties that predict change across the periodic table
  4. 8. bond – a chemical bond between two atoms sharing electrons
  5. 10. dot structures – diagrams / models of molecules showing atoms as element symbols or shapes, shared / bonded valence electrons as lines
Down
  1. 1. between pairs of electrons are minimized (aka shape in which pairs of electrons are as far away from each other as possible
  2. 2. forces – attractions between molecules; generally weaker than intramolecular forces / bonds
  3. 4. substance – structure built of metal cations held together by attraction to a sea of delocalized electronsMolecular geometry – the 3-dimensional shape of a covalent molecule, as determined by its shared and unshared pairs of valence electrons
  4. 6. bonding – a relatively strong attraction between atoms or ions resulting from shared or transferred valence electrons
  5. 7. and lone pairs of valence electrons as dots
  6. 9. Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) theory – chemical model predicated on the idea that bonded atoms form the shape in which the
