These elements, known as the alkali metals (group 1A) and alkaline earth metals (group 2A), are those in which the outer-shell s orbitals are being filled. On the right is a block of six columns. These are the elements in which the outermost p orbitals are being filled.
He rearranged the table, placing elements in order of atomic weight, not by property. This resulted in elements that had similar properties but were actually very unrelated from being placed incorrectly, and lead to them being put where it made more sense. After the reordering, they were also very much aligned by their properties, thus fixing the problem of those elements that didn't fit.
Properties of metals include being conductors of electricity and heat, malleable, and ductile. Examples of metallic elements include gold, copper, and silver.

Group 1 have one valence electron. The elements in Group 2 have two. The elements in Group 17 have seven valence electrons, and Group 18 elements have eight. Because the valence electrons within a family are the same, the elements in that group have similar properties.
It is easier to study the properties of different elements if arranged. Elements in a given group (vertical column) have the same number of valence electrons and hence have similar properties.
He is credited as being the creator of the first version of the periodic table of elements. Using the table, he predicted the properties of elements yet to be discovered.
