    Dmitri Mendeleev in 1890 Dmitri Mendeleev's second wife, Anna. In 1876, he became obsessed [citation needed] with Anna Ivanova Popova and began courting her; in 1881 he proposed to her and threatened suicide if she refused. His divorce from Leshcheva was finalized one month after he had married Popova (on 2 April) [51] in early 1882.

    The 1871 periodic table constructed by Dmitri Mendeleev. The periodic table is one of the most potent icons in science, lying at the core of chemistry and embodying the most fundamental principles of the field. The history of chemistry represents a time span from ancient history to the present. By 1000 BC, civilizations used technologies that ...

  5. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    The first periodic table to become generally accepted was that of the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869; he formulated the periodic law as a dependence of chemical properties on atomic mass. As not all elements were then known, there were gaps in his periodic table, and Mendeleev successfully used the periodic law to predict some ...

    In chemistry, Dmitri Mendeleev, following the atomic theory of John Dalton, created the first periodic table of elements. In physics, the experiments, theories and discoveries of Michael Faraday, Andre-Marie Ampere, James Clerk Maxwell, and their contemporaries led to the creation of electromagnetism as a new branch of science.

  7. Periodic trends - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_trends

    Mendeleev organized the elements based on atomic weight, leaving empty spaces where he believed undiscovered elements would take their places. [3] Mendeleev’s discovery of this trend allowed him to predict the existence and properties of three unknown elements, which were later discovered by other chemists and named gallium , scandium , and ...

    Mendeleev found these patterns validated atomic theory because it showed that the elements could be categorized by their atomic weight. Inserting a new element into the middle of a period would break the parallel between that period and the next, and would also violate Dalton's law of multiple proportions. [37] Mendeleev's periodic table from 1871.

    1906 — Mendeleev's table: with six supposedly missing elements between H and He [15] 1919 — Hackh's table, with 9 columns in the top half and 11 in the bottom half. The position of an element in the table determines its properties. [16] [n 4] 1923 — Deming's other table: Mendeleev style with dividing line between metals and nonmetals [17]
