Ionic Bonding
Across
- 3. valence (outer)shells
- 6. lots of it are required to overcome the force of attractions
- 7. diagram used to show the arrangement of the outer shell electrons in bondings
- 9. are good conductors of electricity when in this state
- 10. a 3D repeating arrangement of alternating + and − ions
- 11. negatively charged ions
- 12. positively charged ions
- 13. the nature of most ionic compounds at room temperature
Down
- 1. the force between oppositely charged ions
- 2. an atom (except the noble gases) will lose or gain electrons to become this
- 4. need to lose electrons to form positive ions
- 5. need to gain electrons to form negative ions
- 8. melting and boiling points
