In the first periodic table designed by Mendeleev, the elements were arranged by increasing mass. Today, they are arranged by increasing

• Atomic Number

• Atomic Mass

• Electronegativity

• Valence Electrons

Had the "atomic number" been discovered during Mendeleev's lifetime?

• Yes

• No

Why did Mendeleev's periodic table have missing spaces (blanks)?

• Unknown Elements

• Incomplete Data

• Experimental Errors

• Intentional Design
