IHP Chapter 1
Across
- 2. tiny negatively charged fundamental particle
- 3. defines which element is which
- 4. weighted average mass of all natural isotopes of a given element
- 7. contains information about all the nuclear properties of all the isotopes
- 9. two or more atoms bonded together to create a new substance
- 10. number of nucleons
- 11. force that acts on protons and neutrons
- 16. molecule that contains two or more different elements
- 17. relationship between two nuclides indicating the same number of neutrons but different number of protons
- 19. actual mass of an atom in AMU or grams
- 20. Einstein's theory that gives us E=mc^2
- 23. color that indicates 100 day to 10 year long half lives
- 25. this allows nucleons to change
- 26. same total number of nucleons
Down
- 1. attractive force between 2 objects that have mass
- 5. any type of atom specified by its atomic number, atomic mass and energy state
- 6. would be a dot on a graph of neutron vs. proton numbers
- 8. energy required to completely remove an electron from an atom
- 12. color indicating half lives greater than 5E8 years or stable isotopes
- 13. also known as coulombic force; carried by photons
- 14. same element but different nuclear properties
- 15. equal to to mass defect that is released when a bound system is created from "free" constituents
- 18. 1/12th of the mass of one atom of C-12
- 21. least massive electrons are found here
- 22. one of six fundamental particles that make up protons, neutrons and other hadrons
- 24. protons and neutrons
