  2. 4. A pure chemical substance consisting of only one type of atom (e.g., Oxygen, Gold).
  3. 8. The basic unit of a chemical element and the building block of matter.
  4. 9. A mixture of two or more metals (or a metal and nonmetal), such as brass or steel.
  5. 10. An element that lacks metallic properties; typically poor conductors of heat and electricity.
  6. 11. Two or more atoms bonded together chemically.
  7. 12. A measure of mass per unit volume.
  8. 13. The measure of the force of gravity acting on an object's mass.
  9. 14. The upward force exerted by a fluid that opposes the weight of an immersed object.
Down
  1. 2. An element that is typically shiny, malleable, ductile, and a good conductor of heat and electricity.
  2. 3. A substance formed when two or more different elements are chemically bonded.
  3. 5. The property of a material that allows it to be hammered or rolled into thin sheets without shattering.
  4. 6. The gradual destruction of materials (usually metals) by chemical reaction with their environment (e.g., rusting).
  5. 7. Anything that has mass and takes up space.
  6. 12. The property of a material that allows it to be stretched into thin wires.
