Dobereiner's Law of Triads:
Examples:
Elements of the triad arranged in the increasing atomic mass | Atomic mass (u) |
Lithium (Li) | 6.9 |
Sodium (Na) | 23.0 |
Potassium (K) | 39.0 |
The mass of the middle element of the triad i.e. Sodium=
Elements of the triad arranged in the increasing atomic weight | Atomic weight (u) |
Calcium (Ca) | 40.1 |
Strontium (Sr) | 87.6 |
Barium (Ba) | 137.3 |
The mass of the middle element of the triad i.e. Strontium=
