Modern Periodic Table

The modern periodic law The modern periodic law states that the properties of elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers. This law builds upon the earlier observations made by Dmitri Mendeleev and Julius Lothar Meyer, who organized elements based on their atomic masses. The modern periodic law is an extension of Mendeleev’s original periodic
