Merits of Mendeleev's periodic table:

1) Mendeleev left gaps for undiscovered elements.This helped in the discovery of other elements in the near future.

2) He boldly predicted the properties of several undiscovered elements.All these elements that were later discovered had properties similar to those predicted by Mendeleev.

3) Mendeleev named these elements by prefixing a Sanskrit numeral(eka) to the name of the preceding element.

Example Eka boron, Eka Aluminium, Eka Silicon etc.
