Differentiate between Modern periodic law and Mendeleev's periodic law
Mendeleev's periodic table | Modern periodic table |
Mendeleev's periodic table has 8 vertical columns called groups and 12 horizontal row called as periods | The modern periodic table has 18 columns called groups and seven rows called periods |
The table orders the elements based on their atomic weight | The table orders the elements based on their atomic number |
Mendeleev's periodic table had gaps for the missing elements at that time | The modern periodic table has no such gaps. |
Mendeleev's periodic table has elements with dissimilar properties in the same group sometimes | modern periodic table have similar properties repeated at regular intervals |
Mendeleev's periodic table doesn't support the fact of the existence of isotopes | The modern periodic table supports this fact as the classification is based on atomic number |
