History of the periodic table the Periodic Law for the chemical elements". He contributed the word 'periodic' in chemistry. The Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev was the first scientist to make a periodic table similar to the one used today. Mendeleev arranged the elements by atomic mass, corresponding to relative molar mass. It is sometimes said that he played 'chemical solitaire' on long train journeys, using cards with various facts about the known elements. On March 6, 1869, Mendeleev gave a formal presentation, "The Dependence Between the Properties of the Atomic Weights of the Elements", to the Russian Chemical Society. In 1869, the table was published
Extended periodic table (detailed cells) Extended periodic table (detailed cells) This is a large version of the extended periodic table of the chemical elements. For the natural isotopic composition of each element it shows "name", "atomic number", "symbol", "standard atomic weight" (or atomic weight) and a link to the element's isotopes. It also has, by keyed markings, a notification of "occurrence", "state of matter" and "metallic character". It is named "extended" because it shows elements that are theoretical only (in period 8), and "large" means that the table might exceed page width. The presentation is wide which means that there are no table parts separated
