Atomic Structure and Theories

Puzzle Type: Educational
Science Teacher: Ronda Denton
Horizontales
Found the neutron
Radiation that is made up of alpha particles.
The weighted average mass of the isotopes oh that element
Atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons
A type of equation that shows the atomic number and mass number of the particles involved.
A theory based on numerous scientific experiments, that marked the beginning of the development of modern atomic theory
Radiation that is made up of beta particles; is deflected toward a positively charged plate when radiation from a radioactive source is directed between two electrically charged plates
The rays and particles-alpha and beta, and gamma rays-that are emitted by radioactive materials.
Rejected the atomic theory
Discovered that atoms of each element contain a unique positive charge in their nuclei
A high speed electron with a -1 charge that is emitted during radioactive decay
High energy radiation that has no electrical charge and no mass, is not deflected by electric or magnetic fields, usually accompanies alpha and beta radiation and accounts for most of the energy lost during radioactive decay
Verticales
Subatomic particle located in the nucleus of an atom having a +1 charge and has an average mass number of 1
A spontaneous process in which unstable nuclei lose energy bu emitting radiation
Accidentally discovered the cathode ray
The smallest particle of an element that retains all the properties of that element.
The number after an element's name, representing the sum of its protons and neutrons.
Developed the nuclear model of the atom
A reaction that involves a change in the nucleus of an atom
Proposed the Plum Pudding model of the atom
Suggested that matter is composed of empty space through which atoms move.
The process in which some substances spontaneously emit radiation.
A ray of radiation that originates from the cathode and travels to the anode of a cathode ray tube
A particle with two protons and two neutrons with a +2 charge.
A negatively charged subatomic particle with an extremely small mass that is found in all forms of matter and moves through the empty space surround an atom's nucleus
The small, positively charged center of an atom that contains protons and neutrons.
A neutral subatomic particle that is located in the nucleus of an atom and has a average mass number of 1
Determined the charge of the electron
