Origin of the Periodic Table

Between 1817 and 1829, the German chemist Johan Dobereiner classified some elements
into groups of three called triads, since they had similar chemical properties.
In 1863, the English chemist John Newlands classified the established elements into several
groups, proposing the Law of Octaves.
In 1869, the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev published his first periodic table of the
elements organized in increasing order of atomic mass.
At the same time, Lothar Meyer, a German chemist, published his own periodic table with
the elements arranged from lowest to highest atomic mass.
In 1913, an English chemist, Henry Moseley, by means of X-ray studies, determined the
nuclear charge of the elements, regrouping them in increasing order of atomic number.
Currently the current periodic table has 118 elements (94 of which occur naturally on
Earth).

Classification:
There are 2 classifications in the periodic table are metals and nonmetals.
In the metals there are:
Alkali
Transition
Alkaline earth
Post-transitional
Metalloids
Lanthanides
Actinides

In the nonmetals:
Halogens
Noble gases

- Hydrogen (H)1: Non-metals

- Helium (He)2 : Non-metals
- Lithium (Li)3: Alkali metals
- Beryllium (Be)4: Alkali earth metals
- Boron (B)5: Metalloids
- Carbon (C)6: Non-metals
- Nitrogen (N)7: Non-metals
- Oxygen (O)8: Non-metals
- Fluorine (F): 9 Halogens
- Neon (Ne): 10 Noble Gases
- Sodium (Na): 11 Alkali Metals
- Magnesium (Mg): 12 Alkaline Earth Metals
- Aluminum (Al): 13 Post-transitional
- Silicon (Si): 14 Metalloids
- Phosphorus (P)15 Non-metals
