Across
- 4. Model included a nucleus with a positive electric charge. Negatively charged electrons moved in orbits around the nucleus.
- 6. model of atom in which the electrons seem to form a cloud as they move around the nucleus
- 8. Vertical column in the periodic table
- 11. another name for group
- 12. Basic unit of matter
- 14. A region of space within an atom in which electrons with the same energy are generally located. Determined by the period the element is located on.
- 15. An atom or group of atoms that has a positive or negative charge.
- 16. an element that is typically dull in appearance and is a poor conductor of electricity. Many are gases at room temperature.
- 19. Atom with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
- 22. A chart of the elements showing the repeating pattern of their properties
- 23. Electrons in the outermost energy, or electron shell. This determines how the atom will react chemically with other atoms.
Down
- 1. A subatomic particle that has a positive charge and that is found in the nucleus of an atom. Has a mass of 1 AMU
- 2. Elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
- 3. Mass the weighted average of the masses of the isotopes of an element
- 5. A pure substance made of only one kind of atom.
- 7. A subatomic particle that has a negative charge. Found outside the nucleus. Mass of 0 AMU
- 9. When an atom loses and electron. The excess charge comes from protons.
- 10. A unit of mass that measure the relative amounts of matter in atoms. (AMU)
- 13. A horizontal row of elements in the periodic table
- 17. an element that is solid at room temperature, a good conductor of heat and electricity, and generally is shiny; most metals are ductile and malleable
- 18. protons, neutrons, electrons
- 20. When an atom gains an electron. The excess charge comes from electrons
- 21. A subatomic particle that has no charge and that is found in the nucleus of an atom. Has a mass of 1 AMU
