After Dmitri Mendeleev and Lothar Meyer received the Davy Medal from the Royal Society for their later 'discovery' of the periodic table in 1882, Newlands fought for recognition of his earlier work and eventually received the Davy Medal in 1887. On the Discovery of the Periodic Law and on Relations among the Atomic Weights (1884)
The history of the periodic table reflects over two centuries of growth in the understanding of the chemical and physical properties of the elements, with major contributions made by Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier, Johann Wolfgang Döbereiner, John Newlands, Julius Lothar Meyer, Dmitri Mendeleev, Glenn T. Seaborg, and others.
Alexandre-Emile Béguyer de Chancourtois publishes the telluric helix, an early, three-dimensional version of the periodic table of the elements. [65] 1864 John Newlands proposes the law of octaves, a precursor to the periodic law. [65] 1864 Lothar Meyer develops an early version of the periodic table, with 28 elements organized by valence. [66 ...
Visualization of John Newlands' Law of Octaves. In 1863 John Newlands noticed that when ordered by weight, every eighth element seemed to share similar properties, such as carbon and silicon in the sequence: carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, sodium, magnesium and silicon.
August 20 – John Alexander Reina Newlands produces the first periodic table of the elements. [5] November 27 – Barbituric acid is first synthesized, by German chemist Adolf von Baeyer. Lothar Meyer develops an early version of the periodic table, with 28 elements organized by valence. [6] [7]
This organization surpassed earlier attempts at classification by Alexandre-Émile Béguyer de Chancourtois, who published the telluric helix, an early, three-dimensional version of the periodic table of the elements in 1862, John Newlands, who proposed the law of octaves (a precursor to the periodic law) in 1864, and Lothar Meyer, who ...

Amphid salts was a name given by Jons Jacob Berzelius in the 19th century for chemical salts derived from the 16th group of the periodic table which included oxygen, sulfur, selenium, and tellurium. [76] The term received some use in the early 1800s but is now obsolete. [77] The current term in use for the 16th group is chalcogens.
