Across
- 3. representation of the valence electrons for an element
- 5. a horizontal row on the Periodic Table; same number of electron shells
- 7. substance that can conduct electric currents under some conditions but not others; used in computer chips, solar cells
- 12. an electron on the outermost shell, have the highest energy
- 14. shiny and reflective
- 15. the experiment where a green beam bent towards a positively charged plate
- 16. the experiment where positively charged alpha particles mostly went straight through the foil but some deflected
Down
- 1. substance composed of atoms of 2 or more elements bonded together
- 2. the center of the atom where all mass is located
- 4. a positively charged subatomic particle with 1 amu mass, located in the ceter
- 6. a vertical column on the Periodic Table; same number of valence electrons, same chemical properties
- 8. ability to be hammered/rolled into flat sheets or shapes
- 9. ability to pull/draw out a material into long, thin wires
- 10. the ease and speed that an element combines/reacts with other substances
- 11. a neutrally charged subatomic particle with 1 amu mass, located in the center
- 13. a negatively charged subatomic particle with negligible mass, located outside the center
