Across
  1. 2. Electrons closer to the nucleus, shielding outer ones
  2. 4. When core electrons block the full nuclear charge from the valence electrons
  3. 6. A positively charged ion, smaller than the parent atom
  4. 7. When an atom loses or gains an electron,it turns into this
  5. 8. A horizontal row on the periodic table
  6. 9. A vertical column on the periodic table
  7. 11. The properties of elements recur periodically when arranged by increasing atomic number
  8. 12. A conductor of heat and electricity, malleable and shiny
  9. 15. How easy it is to gain an electron
  10. 16. Poor conductor, often brittle, found on the right side of the periodic table
  11. 17. The distance from the nucleus to the outermost electron
Down
  1. 1. Outermost electrons
  2. 3. The net positive charge felt by valence electrons after shielding.
  3. 5. How difficult it is to lose an electron
  4. 10. The greater the distance between charges, the weaker the attraction or repulsion, like charges attract, opposite charges repel
  5. 13. The in-betweeners of metals and nonmetals, mixed properties
  6. 14. A negatively charged ion, bigger than the parent atom
