Across
- 2. A compound formed by ions bonding together through electrostatic forces.
- 4. an atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons.
- 7. a form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles, either statically as an accumulation of charge or dynamically as a current.
- 8. A molecule formed by covalent bonds, in which the atoms share one or more pairs of valence electrons.
- 11. Also called electrolytic conductor. a conducting medium in which the flow of current is accompanied by the movement of matter in the form of ions.
- 12. a substance, body, or device that readily conducts heat, electricity, sound, etc.: Copper is a good conductor of electricity.
- 14. the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when close to other electrically charged matter.
- 15. to drive or force back
- 16. The temperature at which a solid substance melts or fuses.
- 17. A molecule formed by covalent bonds, in which the atoms share one or more pairs of valence electrons.

Down
- 1. having a deficiency of electrons; having a higher electric potential
- 3. the quality or property of being soluble; relative capability of being dissolved.
- 5. a material of such low conductivity that the flow of current through it is negligible.
