Periodic Table - a table of the chemical elements arranged in order of atomic number, usually
in rows, so that elements with similar atomic structure (and hence similar chemical properties)
appear in vertical columns.
Atom - An atom is the smallest constituent unit of ordinary matter that has the properties of
a chemical element.[1]
Dmitri Mendeleev - For the Russian Prime Minister with a similar name,
see Dmitry Medvedev. "Mendeleev" redirects here. For other uses,
see Mendeleev (disambiguation).
Julius Lothar Meyer - (19 August 1830 11 April 1895) was
a German chemist. He was one of the pioneers in developing the
first periodic table of chemical elements.
