Stanislao Cannizzaro, an Italian chemist who worked with Dmitri, inspired Dmitri Mendeleev to come up with his creative ideas.

He also built upon the work of chemist Antoine Lavoisier, who isolated and named oxygen, uncovering its role in the process of combustion.

Because the elements weren't in any sort of structure and in order to have a good time and get the party started they needed Mendeleev to organise them and put them next to other elements who were similar to them. That way when someone comes along with a new element friend he can just look at what other elements have similar properties, slip the new element in with them in the right location and everyones happy!!!
