The holes suggested that there were "missing" elements that hadn't been discovered yet. Mendeleev successfully predicted the basic properties of germanium, which hadn't been discovered at the time, based on the properties he expected an element in that position to have. He called it "eka-silicon" (eka is a Sanskrit word meaning "one", because it was one period "higher" than silicon).
When germanium was later discovered and turned out to have properties very similar to what Mendeleev had predicted, it went a long way towards validating Mendeleev's concept.
What else can I help you with?
What value was there in predicting the properties for gaps in Mendeleevs table?
DiscoVery of new elements
What was the problem with Mendeleevs table?
He left too many spaces between the elements......
What were mendeleevs discoveries and predictions and discoveries abot the periodic table?
Mendeleev predicted that properties of elements are periodic function of atomic mass. He demonstrated it by creating a table.
Which two elements on the periodic tabel would have been placed in different groups in moseleys periodic table but not in mendeleevs?
bi and po
What was the name predicted for gallium by mendeleevs?
Mendeleev predicted the name "eka-aluminium" for the element that is now known as gallium. This naming convention was based on the positions of the elements in his periodic table.
Why the improvement in Mendeleevs periodic table was made?
To understand the concept of Periodic Table

What changes were made to the periodic table after Dmitri mendeleevs discovery?
they changed the 3 new Elements.
Mendeleevs periodic table was useful because it enabled scientists to predict properties of unknown?

Was Mendeleevs table a completely regular grid?
not if u mean completely filled in but square by square yes
Main idea of mendeleevs first periodic table?
In Mendeleev's periodic table, the elements were arranged in the increasing order of their atomic masses and repeating periodic properties.

Who is mendeleevs?
Dmitri Mendeleev was a Russian chemist; he proposed the modern Periodic Table of elements in 1869.
Why were Mendeleevs efforts on the peridic table more successfully the other scientist?
Mendeleev's table was more systematic. Elements were arranged in order of atomic masses.
How do you attach table legs with bolts?
To attach table legs with bolts, first align the leg with the table corner and mark the holes. Drill pilot holes in the table and leg. Insert bolts through the holes and tighten with nuts using a wrench. Repeat for all legs.
