Investigation 2 Review
Across
- 2. Electrons closer to the nucleus, shielding outer ones
- 4. When core electrons block the full nuclear charge from the valence electrons
- 6. A positively charged ion, smaller than the parent atom
- 7. When an atom loses or gains an electron,it turns into this
- 8. A horizontal row on the periodic table
- 9. A vertical column on the periodic table
- 11. The properties of elements recur periodically when arranged by increasing atomic number
- 12. A conductor of heat and electricity, malleable and shiny
- 15. How easy it is to gain an electron
- 16. Poor conductor, often brittle, found on the right side of the periodic table
- 17. The distance from the nucleus to the outermost electron
Down
- 1. Outermost electrons
- 3. The net positive charge felt by valence electrons after shielding.
- 5. How difficult it is to lose an electron
- 10. The greater the distance between charges, the weaker the attraction or repulsion, like charges attract, opposite charges repel
- 13. The in-betweeners of metals and nonmetals, mixed properties
- 14. A negatively charged ion, bigger than the parent atom
