Andreas von Antropoff his Periodic Table in the article ""Eine neue Form des periodischen Systems der Elemente"" in the "Zeitschrift für angewandte Chemie" in 1926. The periodic table is regularly numbered from 1 - Hydrogen to 118 - Oganesson, with "each number representing the number of protons stored within an atom's nucleus in a satisfying balance" compared to most other contemporary tables. In addition he placed the theoretical "Element zero", which had "been a matter of conjecture for nearly a century" atop his periodic table and called it Neutronium. His periodic table was in widespread use in German schools until 1945 and soon
History of the periodic table of periodic table, which he named "Vis tellurique" (the 'telluric helix'), after the element tellurium, which fell near the center of his diagram. With the elements arranged in a spiral on a cylinder by order of increasing atomic weight, de Chancourtois saw that elements with similar properties lined up vertically. His 1863 publication included a chart (which contained ions and compounds, in addition to elements), but his original paper in the "Comptes Rendus de l'Académie des Sciences" used geological rather than chemical terms and did not include a diagram. As a result, de Chancourtois' ideas received little attention until after
