Dmitri Mendeleev and The Periodic Table
Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev (1834-1907) was a Russian chemist and inventor. He formulated the Periodic Law, created his own version of the periodic table of elements,
and used it to correct the properties of some already discovered elements and also to predict the properties of elements yet to be discovered.
In 1863 there were 56 known elements with a new element being discovered at a rate of approximately one per year. ... After becoming a teacher, Mendeleev wrote
the definitive textbook of his time: Principles of Chemistry (two volumes, 1868--1870). As he attempted to classify the elements according to their chemical
properties, he too noticed patterns that led him to postulate his periodic table. Mendeleev was unaware of the earlier work on periodic tables going on in
the 1860s. He made the following table, and by adding additional elements following this pattern, developed his extended version of the periodic table.
