Because the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in atoms is increasing to left.
The atomic number
He is the founder of the periodic table. He arranged the elements according to the atomic masses. Few changes are made in his periodic table to make the modern periodic table.
According to the modern periodic table "Elements are the periodic function of their atomic number".They are arranged in increasing atomic no. in the periodic table.
When you move from left to right on the periodic table, the atomic number of the elements increase.
The atomic number of permanganate on the periodic table is 25.
The atomic number of scandium on the periodic table is 21.
The atomic number of uranium on the periodic table is 92.
Because there are increasingly more protons, electrons, and neutrons. Atomic mass is the average number of neutrons in all of the isotopes(different types) of a specific element, meaning you can sometimes have decimal masses. But, the atomic number is never a decimal because the atomic number is just a numbering system for all the elements.
The Periodic Table is.
Platinum has a relative atomic weight of 195.09(you will not find 5.09 anywhere else on a periodic table.)
The periodic table has evolved over time as new elements have been discovered and our understanding of atomic structure has improved. Elements have been reorganized based on their atomic number instead of atomic weight, and new elements have been added as they were synthesized in laboratories. The table has also been expanded to include more information about each element, such as atomic structure and properties.
Elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic number in the periodic table.
