Hey MATE!!!
Mendeleev's periodic classification had many defects within it :
> Anomalous pair of elements were placed together which do not follow the order of atomic weight. Like
(Ar and K) Argon was placed before K.
Ar= 39.9
K = 39.1
Same was with (Te and In),
(Co and Ni) and (Th and Pd).
> Position of Hydrogen was not predictable as it resembles properties of both alkali metals[IA] and the halogens[VIIA].
> Like elements like Pt and Au were placed in different groups.
> Dislike elements like K (more reactive) and Cu (less reactive) were placed together.
Hope it helps
