Across
- 1. Elements with atomic numbers 57-71.
- 5. Highly reactive metals in group 1 of the periodic table.
- 8. A charged atom, either positive or negative, formed by losing or gaining electrons.
- 9. Very reactive nonmetals in group 17 of the periodic table.
- 11. An element that has properties of both metals and nonmetals.
- 12. A measure of an atom's ability to attract and bond with electrons.
- 14. The distance from the nucleus to the outermost electron of an atom.
- 15. A horizontal row in the periodic table; properties of elements repeat periodically.
