To give provisional names to his predicted elements, Dmitri Mendeleev used the prefixes eka- / ˈ iː k ə-/, [note 1] dvi- or dwi-, and tri-, from the Sanskrit names of digits 1, 2, and 3, [3] depending upon whether the predicted element was one, two, or three places down from the known element of the same group in his table.

Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev (/ ˌ m ɛ n d əl ˈ eɪ ə f / MEN-dəl-AY-əf; [2] [b] [a] 8 February [O.S. 27 January] 1834 – 2 February [O.S. 20 January] 1907) was a Russian chemist known for formulating the periodic law and creating a version of the periodic table of elements.
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 ...
He stayed up for three days and nights then, finally, on 17 February 1869, he fell asleep and dreamt of all 63 known elements laid out in a grand table. Dmitri Mendeleev's periodic table from 1871 with gaps (-) left for new elements. Mendeleev's table reveals the relationship between all the elements in their order:
The two obtained the first isotope of this element, 234m Pa, that had been predicted by Mendeleev in 1871 as a member of the natural decay of 238 U: they named it brevium. A longer-lived isotope 231 Pa was found in 1918 by Otto Hahn and Lise Meitner , and was named by them protoactinium: since it is longer-lived, it gave the element its name.
