Atomic Mass Octaves and Triads
In 1869, Mendeleev organized his periodic table by increasing atomic mass (atomic weight), using what is called the "law of octaves," by which every 8th element in the sequence shared similar properties. This was first observed by John Newlands in his element table around 1863.
Studying physical and chemical properties of chemical elements it is possible to recognize some trends in the periodic table.
atomic weight
the periodic table of elements In this table, elements having similar chemical properties are stacked up. The chemical properties are determined by how many free bonds an atom has open, which is related to how many electrons are in that element's outer shell.
For periodic trends we will examine1- Electronic configuration 2- Ionization energy 3- Atomic radius
well, the periodic table is very useful because you have the atomic number, atomic mass, and even the trends across a period or down a group.
Periodic table of elements provides us a lot of information about element's intrinsic properties. We can get the atomic weight of an element by looking at the periodic table. Trends about the electronegativity and atomic size can also be computed.
The periodic trends that arise from the arrangement of the periodic table provide chemists with an invaluable tool to quickly predict an element's properties. These trends exist because of the similar atomic structure of the elements within their respective group families or period and the periodic nature of the elements.
The periodic table arranges elements not only by their atomic numbers, but by properties called periodic trends. These include, electron affinity, ionization energy, metallic and nonmetallic character, and atomic radius. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_trends
