Across
- 3. A group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest unit of a chemical compound that retains its chemical properties.
- 6. The property of a material that allows it to be easily deformed or shaped without breaking when subjected to pressure or compression.
- 8. The property of a material that allows it to be stretched or drawn into thin wires or threads without breaking.
- 10. The tendency of a material to break or shatter easily when subjected to stress or impact, without significant deformation.
- 11. A vertical column on the periodic table, consisting of elements with similar chemical properties due to the same number of electrons in their outermost energy level.
- 13. A subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom, carrying a positive electric charge (+1).
- 14. A horizontal row on the periodic table, indicating the number of electron energy levels in the atoms of the elements within that row.
- 17. The measure of a material's resistance to being scratched or indented. It describes how well a substance can withstand abrasion.
- 19. A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom and carries a negative electric charge (-1).
- 20. The ability of a material to conduct or transfer heat energy when exposed to a temperature difference.
Down
- 1. Referring to elements or compounds consisting of single atoms, not bonded to each other.
- 2. The measure of the mass of a substance per unit volume. It determines how tightly packed the particles are within a material.
- 4. The visual property that describes the appearance of an object due to the wavelengths of light it reflects or emits.
- 5. The temperature at which a liquid substance changes into a vapor or gas state.
- 7. The visual property that describes the way light interacts with the surface of a material, giving it a shiny or dull appearance.
- 9. A subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom, having no electric charge (neutral).
- 12. A substance formed when two or more different elements chemically combine in fixed proportions to create a new substance with distinct properties.
- 15. A pure substance composed of only one type of atom, characterized by its atomic number and represented on the periodic table.
- 16. The temperature at which a solid substance changes into a liquid state.
- 18. A regular, repeating three-dimensional pattern or arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules in a crystal or solid structure.
