Which of the following was true for Newland's Law of Octaves and his periodic table?
(i) He arranged the elements in increasing order of their atomic weights.
(ii) Every eighth element had properties similar to the first element. The relationship was just like every eighth note that resembles the first note in the octaves of music.
(iii) He didn't take noble gases into account.

The correct option is A A, B, C
If you carefully go through the Newland's Table, you will find a resemblance with the musical octaves.
→ He arranged the then known elements in increasing order of their atomic weights.
→ He classified the then known elements into 7 groups, based on their physical properties.
→ He noted that every eighth element had similar properties to the first. For example - Na and Li had similar properties. (Back then noble gases had not yet been discovered)
→ The relationship was just like every eighth note that resembles the first in octaves. That's why the name 'Newland's Law of Octaves' name was given.
