About This Topic
Analyse how Mendeleev and other scientists organised the elements, leading to the modern periodic table. Understand how electronic structure links to an element's position.
Key Questions
- Why did Mendeleev leave gaps in his periodic table?
- How does the electronic structure of an atom determine its group and period?
- What are the trends in reactivity for Group 1 and Group 7 elements?
