    1. Among chemical properties, Mendeléev concentrated on the compounds formed by elements with
    oxygen and hydrogen.
    2. He selected hydrogen and oxygen as they are very reactive and formed compounds with most elements.
    3. The formulae of the hydrides and oxides formed by an element were treated as one of the basic properties of an element for its classification.
    4. He then took 63 cards and on each card he wrote down the properties of one element.
