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.
The attempts to nominate Mendeleev in 1907 were again frustrated by the absolute opposition of Arrhenius. In 1907, Mendeleev died at the age of 72 in Saint Petersburg from influenza. The crater Mendeleev on the Moon, as well as element number 101, the radioactive mendelevium, are named after him.
