Across
  1. 1. Acid I am used as an antiseptic. I form 5 hydrogen bonds
  2. 4. My formula is Na2B4O7.4H2O
  3. 5. My trend along the boron family is B>Al>Ga<In<Tl. My value for water is higher in pressure cooker and lower at higher altitudes
  4. 9. I am found in Puga Valley, California and Kashmir
  5. 10. We are made up of Boron to absorb electrons during nuclear reactions
  6. 12. I am found in the mineral Germanite. My abundance is just 0.1% to 1%
