    Unclassified periodic tables defy easy classification: 1891 — Wendt's generation-tree of the elements [111] 1893 — Nechaev's truncated cones [112] 1907 — Grouping of the elements to illustrate refractivity: Runs from group 12 on the left to group 13 on the right [113] 1918 — Cherkesov: Two periodic tables: Mn in group 8 rather than ...

    Like the periodic table, the list below organizes the elements by the number of protons in their atoms; it can also be organized by other properties, such as atomic weight, density, and electronegativity. For more detailed information about the origins of element names, see List of chemical element name etymologies.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    The periodic table and law are now a central and indispensable part of modern chemistry. The periodic table continues to evolve with the progress of science. In nature, only elements up to atomic number 94 exist; [a] to go further, it was necessary to synthesize new elements in the laboratory.

    1958 – Cedarholm, Havens, and Townes use two masers frequency locked to each other and send the light in two directions. They receive the null result. They receive the null result. The experiment is not as precise as earlier light-based MMX experiments, but demonstrates a novel setup that would become much more accurate in the future.

    The modern periodic table is based on atomic number, which is equivalent to the nuclear charge, a change had to wait for the discovery of the nucleus. [37]: 228 In addition, an entire row of the table was not shown because the noble gases had not been discovered when Mendeleev devised his table. [37]: 222

  8. Periodic trends - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_trends

    The periodic trends in properties of elements. In chemistry, periodic trends are specific patterns present in the periodic table that illustrate different aspects of certain elements when grouped by period and/or group. They were discovered by the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev in 1863.

  9. Period 2 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period_2_element

    A period 2 element is one of the chemical elements in the second row (or period) of the periodic table of the chemical elements.The periodic table is laid out in rows to illustrate recurring (periodic) trends in the chemical behavior of the elements as their atomic number increases; a new row is started when chemical behavior begins to repeat, creating columns of elements with similar properties.
