Are columns of elements called periods?

No, columns of elements in the periodic table are called groups or families. Periods are the rows of elements that run horizontally across the table. Each period corresponds to the number of electron shells an element's atoms have.


Who is the chemist responsible for the periadic table?

Dmitri Mendeleev is credited with the development of the periodic table in 1869. Mendeleev organized the elements based on their atomic mass and properties, creating a system that allowed for predicting the properties of undiscovered elements. His work laid the foundation for the modern periodic table.


What are the elements in the periodic table based on?

Atomic Number


How did Dmitri Mendeleev figure out how to put the first periodic table together?

Mendeleev organized elements by their atomic mass and properties, arranging them in a table where elements with similar properties were grouped together. Gaps were left for undiscovered elements, allowing Mendeleev to predict the properties of these missing elements based on their position in the table. This led to the development of the first periodic table.


Who put the periodic table in order?

It took many years to discover these elements. Hundreds of thousands worked and arranged the Periodic Table of Elements.The basic design of the periodic table was thought up by Dmitri Mendeleev. It was his idea to arrange the elements according to atomic mass (because this gave repeating patterns of properties). Later it was discovered that atomic charge was what was really important. Eventually the gaps Mendeleev left were filled in by the discovery of more elements, so while many scientist contributed to the modern periodic table Mendeleev is considered to have invented it.
