Across
- 2. Atoms with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons
- 4. the ratio of the mass of an object to its volume
- 5. part of the experiment that is not being tested and is used for comparison
- 7. chemical reaction where a metal is exposed to a nonmetal
- 9. substance consisting of two or more substances mixed together (not in fixed proportions and not with chemical bonding)
- 12. positively charged subatomic particles found on the nucleus
- 13. something you assume you know
- 16. subatomic particle that is not charged and located in the nucleus of the atom
- 17. series of nuclear fission
- 21. mixture than looks the same throughout
- 22. occurs in nature, humans use for enjoyment
- 25. chemical reaction, when something is exposed to oxygen and changes
- 27. a change in the form of a substance but not its chemical composition
- 29. where the electrons are found in a nucleus
- 30. A substance formed by the combination of elements in fixed proportions.
- 31. resistant to flow
- 32. the center of an atom where the protons and neutrons are located
- 33. small nuclei combine to form a large one, occurs naturally on the sun
- 34. nature can regenerate as fast as the resources are used by humans.
- 35. A homogeneous mixture
Down
- 1. process that an unstable isotopes emit energy in the form of radiation.
- 2. atom that has a positive or negative charge
- 3. negative charged particles, part of an atom
- 6. the smallest particle of an element that retains its identity in a chemical reaction
- 8. variable changed by the scientist; what the investigator is testing, found on x- axis
- 10. a substance capable of dissolving other substances
- 11. the energy in the nucleus of an atom
- 14. mixture that you can distinguish the parts, uneven throughout
- 15. matter that has the same composition and properties throughout, element or compound
- 18. deposits of organic materials, formed from decayed plants and animals that have been converted to useful products
- 19. a variable that is not changed
- 20. resources that cannot regenerate within the time period that they are consumed.
- 23. a chemical reaction that creates heat and light
- 24. a series of steps used by scientists/people to help find solutions to problems and/or questions
- 26. type of change where a substance changes into a new substance
- 28. A nuclear reaction in which a large nuclei breaks into smaller ones. This process occurs in nuclear power plants and atomic bombs.
