Best Answer

The periodic law came first.

Mendeleev enunciated this law as "when the elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic weight, there is a periodic repetition of their chemical properties". He proceeded to construct a table based around this law.

In constructing the Periodic Table Mendeleev used remarkable chemical insight, changing the atomic weights of several elements, atomic weight and valence of a few, and leaving a few spaces where there seemed to be room for an undiscovered element in the table -- he was able to predict the chemical properties of these then undiscovered elements with amazing accuracy.
