  • Q1
    1. Mendeleev left blank spaces in his periodic table where he thought elements that had not yet been discovered should go. He was able to predict the properties of these elements by
    noting periodic trends in the properties of known elements that surrounded the blank spaces in the periodic table
    studying the new elements produced by radioactive decay
    studying the spectra of stars that contained them
    testing their properties such as melting point, density, and valence
