    The achievement with which Mendeleev's name will associated with was his creation of the periodic law. He began by making cards for each of the known elements. On each card, he recorded an element's atomic weight, valence electron, and other chemical and physical properties. Then he tried arranging the cards in various ways to see if any pattern could be created. Eventually he was successful. He saw that, when the elements were arranged in ascending order according to their weights, their properties were shown in an orderly manner. He also found three places in the periodic table where elements were missing.…

    The Disappearing Spoon by Sam Kean, examines each of the elements on the periodic table. The Disappearing Spoon focuses on the history of the periodic table by recounting stories about each element on the table, and the scientist that discovered it. For each element, Kean provides an extensive backstory about its origin, the common (or uncommon) uses of the element, and other interesting tidbits. The author begins the novel with a general physical description of the periodic table as a whole; he discusses the names of the groups of elements and their corresponding properties, atoms and their three major sub-particles, the activity of electrons, and the organization of the table. Next, Sam Keane shares specific details about both drama involved…

    Life of Dmitri Mendeleev

    • 2 Pages

    Mendeleev is best known as the chemist who created the periodic table of elements. He arranged the 63 elements known at the time into a Periodic Table based on atomic mass. This was then published in Principles of Chemistry in 1869. His first Periodic Table was put together by arranging the elements in ascending order of atomic weight and grouping them by the similarity of properties. He even predicted that other elements existed, and left space open for them. Mendeleev also provided for variance of atomic weight order, and he predicted three yet to be discovered elements including silicon and boron. However, his table did not include any of the Noble Gases since they had not yet been discovered.…

    In 1771, a French tax collector named Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier had not discovered any elements but he was keenly interested in science and analysed the discoveries of others. He was the first to truly recognise the elements. He identified some elements properly and disproved the existence of others, such as phlogiston. He also co-authored the Methode de Nomeclature Chimique, which was used as the standard for naming new elements.…
