Exploring the Periodic Table

What is Mendel's Periodic Law?

• Mendel's Periodic Law describes the arrangement of elements based on their mass.

• Mendel's Periodic Law describes the periodicity of element properties based on atomic numbers.

• Mendel's Periodic Law is about the inheritance of traits in plants.

How does the Modern Periodic Table differ from Mendel's?

• The Modern Periodic Table was created in the 18th century, while Mendeleev's was created in the 19th century.

• The Modern Periodic Table is based on chemical properties, while Mendeleev's was based on physical properties.
