Chem Crossword 1/24
Across
- 4. the attraction the nucleus exerted on an electron; the effective form of this measures "true" attraction
- 8. ions with a central metal ion bonded to other ions or molecules
- 9. elements found in group 18 that are typically nonreactive
- 10. phenomenon in which inner electrons block the attraction between outer or valence electrons and the nucleus
- 13. elements occupying the center of periodic table
- 17. molecules that bind to a central metal atom in a coordinate complex
- 20. aka. actinides; occupy the bottom of the periodic table and have a 5f subshell
- 21. magnetism caused by an external applied magnetic field causing atoms to align with said magnetic field
Down
- 1. columns of the periodic table, numbered 1-18
- 2. group 1 of the periodic table; these elements are highly reactive
- 3. the phenomenon of elements behaving similar in groups along the periodic table
- 5. catalyst in a different phase of matter than the reactants and products
- 6. number of atoms a central atom holds in a compound
- 7. rows of the periodic table, currently numbered 1-7
- 11. visual representation of the elements orderd by atomic number; shows trends in atomic and ionic radii, ionization energy, electron affinity, electronegativity, etc.
- 12. ligands that form two or more separate coordinate bonds with a central metal atom
- 14. aka. lanthanides; occupy the bottom of the periodic table and have a 4f subshell
