How are elements arranged in the Periodic Table?

• In rows called columns, by increasing mass number.

• In rows called periods, by increasing mass number.

• He ordered elements by both their properties and their atomic number.

• He left gaps for undiscovered elements.

• He used his Periodic Table to make predictions about undiscovered elements.

• He ordered elements by both their properties and their atomic mass.
