Solution

  • In 1913, Henry Moseley showed that the atomic number of an element is a more fundamental property than atomic mass.
  • Elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic numbers.

The modern Periodic law can be stated as:

“The physical and chemical properties of the elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers”.
