Question

what was classification on the basis of law of triads rejected?

Answer 1

because the law of triad of some similar properties of three element are placed in one group than the middle element is unable to get the correct mass
only some elements cant get the mass correctly

Answer 2

                               Dobereiner's Triads

Dobereiner classified elements into groups of three (triad) where "The Atomic Weight of the middle element was the Average of the other two elements"

Example : Ca (Calcium) , Sr (Strontium) , Ba (Barium)

• Atomic weight of Ca = 40 a.m.u

• Atomic weight of Sr = 88 a.m.u

• Atomic weight of Ba = 137 a.m.u

Here Middle Element is Sr

⇒ 88 = (40 + 137)/2  ⇒ 88 = 177/2 ⇒ 88 = 88

Merits : The main achievement of this classification is that it recognized a relationship between properties of elements and their atomic weights

Drawbacks of this classification : The Drawbacks of this classification of this classification are as follows :-

• Some elements which are dissimilar were being grouped into a triad
• There are many elements that cannot be grouped into triads was proposed by Dobereiner
