Solution
The correct option is D none of these Mendeleev's Periodic Table:
Elements are arranged in the periodic table in the increasing order of their relative atomic masses.
Mendeleev divided his periodic table into eight groups and seven periods. Groups from I to VII are meant for normal elements and group VIII is for transition elements.
Groups from I to VII have been divided into two subgroups, while group VIII is meant for three elements.
Periods from 4th to 7th have been divided into two series: 1st series and 2nd series.
Elements having similar properties have been kept in the same group. For example; lithium, potassium, rubidium, etc. are in the 1st group.
