Answer:
The theoretical foundation of the periodic table is associated with the Greek and Egypt philosophers. They said that all the matter is made up of repeating units which were called "atoms" and these are the "building blocks" of the matter.
The Greek philosophers suggested that the various type of matter in the universe possess some properties which are correlated to each other such as liquidity, cohesiveness, and color.
Thus, they started categorizing the matter on the basis of their function and properties which led to the foundation of the periodic table.
