Periodic Table
Across
- 1. a positively charged subatomic particle in the nucleus of an atom
- 5. a region in an atom where there is a high probability of finding electrons
- 6. an ion with a positive chage
- 7. the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom
- 11. symbol for atomic mass unit
- 12. an atom or a group of atoms that has lost or gained one or more electrons and therefore has a net electric charge
- 13. the process of adding electrons to or removing electrons from an atom or group of atoms
- 14. a neutral subatomic particle in the nucleus of an atom
- 16. any of the possible energies an electron may have in an atom
- 19. an ion with a negative charge
- 20. the smallest particle that has the properties of an element
Down
- 2. the center of an atom; made up of protons and neutrons
- 3. any atoms having the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons
- 4. the elements that are good conductors of heat and electricity
- 8. the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom
- 9. the properties of elements tend to repeat in a regular pattern when elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number
- 10. electron an electron in the outermost energy level of an atom
- 15. a horizontal row of elements in the periodic table
- 17. a negatively charged subatomic particle found in the energy level of an atom
- 18. a vertical column of elements in the periodic table
