Mendeleev was the scientist who first devised the Periodic Table of the elements. The pattern he found was that elements have periodic, or repeating series of properties. If you write down the elements in a series according to increasing atomic number, there is a repeating pattern; first metals, then nonmetals, then noble gases, then back to metals. This pattern helps us to understand why elements have the particular chemical properties that they have. It is fundamental to the science of chemistry.

Which discovery showed that Mendeleev was correct in organizing his table of elements according to properties?

The discovery of undiscovered elements with properties predicted by Mendeleev's periodic table (like gallium, germanium, and scandium) confirmed the accuracy of his organization. These elements filled gaps in the periodic table and established a pattern of periodicity that supported Mendeleev's initial insights.


Mendeleev's pattern repeated after how many elements?

The properties were repeated after 8 elements.


How was mendeleev period table arranged?

Mendeleev arranged the elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic masses. He founded that properties of elements are periodic when arranged in this pattern.


What pattern Mendeleev discover when he arranges the elements?

A Pattern of properties appeared when he arranged the elements in order of increasing Atomic Mass


Which of mendeleev table show the elements following a pattern that repeats every seven elements?

It is The Periodic Table of Elements


Why Mendeleev was able to observe periodicity?

mendeleev arranged elements according to atomic mass. He was able to observe periodicity when arranged in this pattern.


What did Mendeleev have to do to unlock the hidden pattern of the elements?

Mendeleev organized the known elements based on increasing atomic mass and observed a repeating pattern of properties. He left gaps for undiscovered elements and predicted their properties, which led to the discovery of new elements that filled those gaps and confirmed his periodic table.


Who discovered a pattern to the elements of the periodic table in 1869?

Demitri Mendeleev discovered a pattern to the periodic table in 1869.


How was Dmitri Mendeleev able to predict the properties of germanium?

Dmitri Mendeleev was able to predict the properties of germanium by leaving gaps in his periodic table for elements that were yet to be discovered. He noticed a pattern in the properties of known elements and used this pattern to predict the existence and properties of undiscovered elements, such as germanium.
