The first scientist to make a successful arrangement of elements into a periodic table of the elements was Dimitri Mendeleev. He arranged his elements in order of increasing Atomic Mass. However, there were some problems with that arrangement. Henry Moseley corrected those problems by arranging the elements in order of increasing atomic number. This is the arrangement we use today.

What country was the periodic table made in?

dmitri Mendeleyev was in a university in St.Petersburg Russia when he made the periodic table...hope this answers your question...jo_phil


Is it true or false that Mendeleev and other scientists were able to use the periodic table to predict the properties of undiscovered elements?

True. Mendeleev and other scientists used the periodic table to predict the properties of undiscovered elements based on their position in the table. This led to the successful discovery and confirmation of elements like gallium and germanium.


Does the old periodic table increase by atomic number?

Yes depending on which scientists version of the periodic table you look at. Henry Moseleys ideas on the periodic table was the first to increase by atomic number.


How did other scientists find missing elements from the periodic table table?

Other scientists found missing elements from the periodic table by conducting experiments to create new compounds or elements, analyzing data from nuclear reactions, and using theoretical predictions based on the periodic table's structure. Advanced analytical techniques and collaborations across different scientific disciplines played a crucial role in the discovery of previously unknown elements.


What role does the periodic table play in understanding the formation and depletion of ozone in the Earth's atmosphere?

The periodic table helps scientists understand the formation and depletion of ozone in the Earth's atmosphere by providing information about the elements involved in these processes. For example, elements like chlorine and bromine, which are found in certain ozone-depleting substances, can react with ozone molecules and break them down. Understanding the properties and behaviors of these elements on the periodic table helps researchers predict how they will interact with ozone and contribute to its depletion.

Who named the elements in the periodic table with their nicknames?

The elements in the periodic table were named by various scientists and researchers based on their properties, origins, or characteristics, rather than by nicknames. The nicknames for some elements have been given by scientists, but they are not the official names listed in the periodic table.
