Besides gallium, which other elements have since been discovered that were left by Mendeleev in his Periodic Table? (Any two)

Solution

  • The relationship between an element's atomic mass and its characteristics is periodic.
  • Mendeleev's periodic law, which was based on atomic mass, was altered as a result of the discovery of atomic numbers.
  • Oxides and hydrides with similar formulas are created by elements with similar chemical characteristics.
  • These characteristics were utilized by Mendeleev to develop his periodic table.

Mendeleev's categorization of elements has certain limitations:

  • Failed to explain where isotopes are located.
  • It was impossible to explain why some elements' atomic masses were in the wrong sequence.
  • The periodic table was unable to assign hydrogen a place.

Other than gallium, Mendeleev only included Germanium and Scandium in his Periodic Table after they were discovered.
