Q

Who first ordered the elements into a period?

A

Demitri Mendeleev

19
Q

What two pieces of evidence were most important for Mendeleev as he ordered the periodic table?

A

Atomic Mass and Reactivity

20
Q

What was wrong with Mendeleev’s periodic table?

A

The pattern in atomic mass did not always increase from left to right. There were a few inconsistencies that would have caused elements to be grouped with elements that did not have similar properties.

23
Q

What happens to the pattern of valence as we move from left to right?

A

24
Q

What happens to the pattern of energy levels as we move from left to right?

A

It stays the same

25
