The purpose is to organize the elements into similar categories to organize the elements in a very structured mannor.. for example, they are arranged by Atomic Mass, and you can also tell the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an element. From this you can also determine the molecular weight, and convert from grams to mols. The Periodic Table is organized in columns and rows, the columns can tell you what the charge on a particular ion is, and also the number of valence electrons. These are just a few ways the periodic table is arranged, there are many, maaany ways.
