Development of the Periodic Table–Mendeleev’s Table of Elements
Introduction to the Periodic Table
1
• By 1830, fifty-five different elements had
been isolated and named.
• In 1869, Mendeleev arranged elements in
order of increasing atomic mass and found
that elements with similar properties fell
into groups.

• Moseley improved the periodic table by
arranging the elements according to
atomic number instead of atomic mass.

Today’s Periodic Table
Introduction to the Periodic Table

• The modern periodic table contains 7
periods, or rows, of elements whose
properties change gradually and 18
groups, or columns, each with a family of
elements having similar properties.

The nuclei of actinides are unstable. All the
actinides are radioactive, which means they
decay to form other elements.
