According to Lother Meyer, how should we arrange the elements in increasing order?
I. The position of hydrogen in the periodic table was uncertain.
II. Isotopes of elements were not given different positions in the table.
III. In the arrangement of Te and I, the increasing order of atomic mass was not obeyed.
- boron and carbon
- sodium and potassium
- gallium and germanium
- lead and gold
What physical and chemical properties of elements were used by Mendeleev in creating his periodic table? List two observations which posed a challenge to Mendeleevs Periodic Law.
Give an account of the process adopted by Mendeleev ′ for the classification of elements. How did he arrive at “Periodic Law”?
Give a one-word answer.
The Law which, states the properties of elements are the periodic function of their atomic masses.
