    Dmitri Mendeleev organized the 63 chemical elements known in the 1860s into the first recognizable periodic table. He arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic mass and grouped them based on similarities in physical and chemical properties. His periodic table displayed a pattern of these properties repeating at regular intervals, known as periodicity. Mendeleev also left gaps in his table for elements not yet discovered but predicted, including accurately forecasting the properties of gallium. The modern periodic table still utilizes Mendeleev's fundamental principles but now organizes elements primarily by atomic number.

    The Person Who Organized the
    Elements

    Dmitri
    Mendeleev
    Russian

    1860’s
    Mendeleev
    • Teacher at St. Petersburg University.

    • Was working on a textbook for his


    Chemistry students.

    • He organized the 63 elements known at


    the time.
    His Criteria
    • Increasing atomic mass.

    • Physical and Chemical Properties.


    Sodium’s Reaction with H2O
    Potassium’s Reaction with H2O
    Periodicity
    • Reoccurrence (repetition) of properties at
    regular intervals.
    Mendeleev’s Periodic Table
    Like A Calendar
    Mendeleev’s Predictions
    • He left spaces on the table for
    undiscovered elements.

    • He predicted the properties of elements


    that had not yet been discovered.
    • How?
    Example: Eka-aluminum
    • He placed this undiscovered element
    below aluminum.
    • He predicted the melting point to be low
    and the density to be 5.9g/cm3.

    • It was later found and named Gallium with


    a density of 5.91g/cm3 and melting point of
    29.7oC.
