Periodic table, in chemistry, the organized array of all the chemical elements in order of increasing atomic number. When the elements are thus arranged, there is a recurring pattern called the ‘periodic law’ in their properties, in which elements in t
The alkali metal family includes the six elements in thefirst columnof the periodic table, fromlithium(Li) down to francium (Fr). These metals all contain one valence electron, meaning they form cations and react readily with water. These elements form the ionic bonds known as salts. Hydrogen...
Periodic Table of Elements - The periodic table is the tabular arrangement of all the chemical elements on the basis of their respective atomic numbers. In the periodic table, the vertical columns are called groups and the horizontal rows are called peri

The history of the development of the periodic table of elements 2.Precursors to the Periodic Table In 1862, A.E.Beguyer de Chancourtois was the first person to make use of atomic weights to reveal that the elements were arranged according to their atomic weights with similar elements ...

4 Periodic trends in atomic and ionic radii The original purpose of the periodic table was to organize the the chemical elements in a manner that would make sense of the ways in which the oobserved physical and chemical properties of the elements vary with the atomic number. In this section...
Dmitri Mendeleev, Russian chemist who devised the periodic table of the elements. Mendeleev found that, when all the known chemical elements were arranged in order of increasing atomic weight, the resulting table displayed a recurring pattern, or periodi
The advantages of Mendeleev’s Periodic table are: The inclusion of these newly discovered elements did not disturb the periodic table. Examples include germanium, gallium, and scandium. It was used to correct the wrong atomic weights in use at that time. A variance from the atomic weight order...
(LANL). With these elements, the atomic weight of the longest-lived isotope gets listed on the periodic table, according to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). These atomic weights should be considered provisional, since a new isotope with a longer half-life (how ...
