Answer:

a table of the chemical elements arranged in order of atomic number, usually in rows, so that elements with similar atomic structure (and hence similar chemical properties) appear in vertical columns.

Hope it helps.

Explanation:

 What Is the Periodic Table?

The Periodic Table is how scientists have organised the 100+ elements that make up all matter. It was proposed in 1869 by Russian chemist, Dmitri Mendeleev.

Unlike previous attempts to organise the elements by properties, Mendeleev arranged the elements in order of the mass of their electrons. He also left gaps for elements that had not yet been discovered. This allowed him to predict what those undiscovered elements would be like.

The periodic table arranges the elements in two ways:

  • Periods: these go across the table from left to right. As you move in this direction, the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom increases by 1.
  • Groups: each vertical column is a group. Groups contain elements with the same kind of properties, because they usually have the same number of electrons in their outer shell.

In Japan, the word for Iron is tetsú; in France it is fer.To prevent communication problems, scientists use symbols which are the same all over the world.

All the letters of the alphabet are used in the Periodic Table, except J.
