Dmitri Mendeleev Russian chemist who created the Periodic Table of Elements in 1869, organizing all known elements by atomic weight and predicting the properties of then-undiscovered elements with remarkable accuracy. His table became the organizing framework of all chemistry and remains one of science's most iconic and functional charts.
Overview
Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev was a Russian chemist known for formulating the periodic law and creating a version of the periodic table of elements. He used the periodic law not only to correct the then-accepted properties of some known elements, such as the valence and atomic weight of uranium, but also to predict the properties of three elements that were yet to be discovered. The synthetic element Mendelevium is named in his honor.
