Composition of Matter
Across
- 2. a type of matter created when atoms are attracted to each other, but do not bond into a rigid shape
- 8. a solid created when the same type of molecule bonds repetitively in a long chain
- 10. the part of an atom that has no charge, but acts as a spacer for the protons so atoms don't push apart from the inside out
- 12. a type of matter made of all one type of atom or molecule
- 16. a type of matter created when atoms or molecules become rigidly bonded into a fixed shape
- 17. the force of attraction between atoms created by the sharing the electrons
- 18. a type of matter that is created when atoms are not attracted to each other and spread far apart
- 19. a solid created when metal atoms come together and share all their electrons
- 20. the outer part of an atom
Down
- 1. a type of matter made of two or more different types of atoms or molecules
- 3. the smallest matter that can exist independently
- 4. two or more atoms that have been joined through bonds
- 5. a solid created when atoms or molecules come together randomly
- 6. the 118 different types of atoms
- 7. a solid created by atoms or molecules that repeat in a pattern
- 9. the positively charged part of an atom that holds the electrons in place
- 11. a chart that organizes the elements by characteristics
- 13. the negatively charged part of an atom responsible for forming bonds with other atoms
- 14. the center part of an atom
- 15. anything with mass and volume
