Periodic Table of Elements
Across
- 4. A pure substance composed of the same type of atom throughout
- 6. The number of protons in the nucleus of one atom of an element
- 7. The mass of an atom, approximately equal to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom
- 10. Elements that are typically not shiny, not malleable, and poor conductors of hear and electricity; usually gases or brittle solids
- 11. Elements that are typically solid, shiny, malleable, and good conductors of hear and electricity; includes most elements
- 13. Nonreactive nonmetals in Group 18 of the periodic table
Down
- 1. The electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom that influence how an element will react with other substances
- 2. a one-or two -letter notation used to represent an atoms of a particular element
- 3. The columns on a periodic table that arrange the elements by the number of electrons that are in the outermost shell; also called families
- 5. A table in which all the known elements are arranged by properties and are represented by symbols
- 8. Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals; sometimes referred to as semiconductors
- 9. The rows in a periodic table that classify the elements by the number of electron shells
- 12. The area surrounding the nucleus of an atom where the electrons are found
