  1. 1Newlands and then Mendeleev attempted to...classify the elements by arranging them in order of the atomic weights.
    - This list can be arranged in a table so elements with similar properties are in columns/groups
  2. 2It's called a periodic table because...Similar properties occur at regular intervals
  3. 3The early periodic table was incomplete and some elements were placed in inappropriate groups if the strict order of atomic weight was followed. Mendeleev did what to solve this?He left gaps for elements that hadn't been found
  4. 4What discovery changed how the periodic table was constructed?That of protons, neutrons and electrons!
