WHO WAS
MENDELEEV?

In 1869, the Russian chemist

Dmitri Mendeleev produced one of the first
practical periodic tables.

His work laid the foundation of the modern

periodic table

DMITRI THE MODERN

MENDELEEV PERIODIC TABLE
He produced one of the first practical It has vertical columns called groups and
periodic tables. horizontal rows called periods.

His work became the basis of the modern Its arrangement allows us to look for
periodic table. patterns in the properties of the elements.
ASSIGNMENT

Gallium was discovered six years after

Mendeleev published his periodic table.

Research why the discovery of gallium

helped Mendeleev’s periodic table to
become accepted.
