  2. Various anomalies of Mendeleev’s Periodic Table removed as follows in the Modern Periodic Table: (i) Elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic number in Modern Periodic Table, thus there was no need for keeping more than one element in one slot. (ii) In Modern Periodic Table therRead more

    Various anomalies of Mendeleev’s Periodic Table removed as follows in the Modern Periodic Table:
    (i) Elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic number in Modern Periodic Table, thus there was no need for keeping more than one element in one slot.
    (ii) In Modern Periodic Table there was no problem of the place of isotopes, as isotopes have same atomic mass with different atomic numbers.
    (iii) Elements having same valence electron are kept in same group.
    (iv) Elements having same number of shells were put under the same period.
    (v) Position of hydrogen became clarified in as it is kept in the group with the elements of same valence electrons.

  3. Since, noble gases are inert and all of them show similar properties, thus they have unique properties compare to other elements, thus they are placed in a separate group in Periodic Table.

  4. Mendeleev used atomic mass of the elements as the unique criteria of the elements. He proposed that the chemical properties of elements are the periodic function of their atomic masses. And thus, he arranged the elements in the increasing order of their atomic masses.
