Mendeleev was the inventor of the periodic table. He organized all the known elements into the periodic table based on atomic number. He was also able to predict the existence â¦ of elements that had not yet been discovered based on gaps in the table he created.
And when they were discovered, Mendeleev turned out to be right. For example, he predicted the properties of an undiscovered element that should fit below aluminium in his table. When this element, called gallium, was discovered in 1875, its properties were found to be close to Mendeleev's predictions.
