Across
- 4. Charged Particle
- 6. A strong force of attraction holding atoms together in a molecule, resulting from the sharing or transfer of electrons
- 8. Not lustrous and doesn't conduct heat or electricity well, brittle and bonds covalently with itself
- 11. number # of protons and neutrons (A) always a whole number
- 12. Positive atom
- 16. Found in the electron cloud, with a 1- charge
- 18. Conducts electricity and heat relatively well, typically malleable and bonds ionically with nonmetals
- 19. A bond between a metal cation & a nonmetal anion
- 20. Also known as a family, columns on the periodic table
Down
- 1. E- in the outermost energy level; involved in chemical bonding
- 2. Found in the nucleus, with a 0 charge
- 3. Found in the nucleus, with a 1+ charge
- 5. Small and dense, found in the center of the atom, contains P+ and N0
- 7. Negative atom
- 9. number # of protons (Z) always the same for an element
- 10. Atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons
- 13. Rows on the periodic table
- 14. Smallest particle into which an element can be divided and still be the same element
- 15. A group of two or more atoms
- 17. A bond between two nonmetals
