ViviThe modern Periodic Table organizes elements based on their atomic number and similar chemical properties, providing a systematic way to study and understand relationships between elements. It helps scientists predict an element's properties based on its position in the table, enabling them to conduct research more efficiently and make advancements in various fields such as chemistry and materials science.

Why is the periodic table is so useful?
It helps people find elements on the periodic table.yes that and more it also tells you the atomic number and mass of those elements
What method did Mendeleev use to organize the periodic table of elements?
An element's atomic number, or how many protons it has.
Did Maxwell create and early periodic table?
Maxwell is not a Russian scientist! It is the the brand name of an obsolete American automobile- popular with the comedian Jack Benny. Dimitri Mendeleev was the Russian scientist you seek. He died in l907. Mendeleev was a government scientist of the Imperial Bureau of Standards and as you stated he created the modern Periodic table of the elements- which is basic to the study of Chemistry. For some odd reason- maybe because he was a government scientist- he was never awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry despite being eligible as the prizes began in l900 and he lived until l907. One would think he was a Nobel candidate- with such a major contribution to chemistry- still in everyday use though new elements come up all the time!
Why is the periodic table more successful than other proceeding attempts?
The periodic table is more successful than previous attempts because it organizes elements based on their properties and helps predict the behavior of unknown elements. Its layout groups elements with similar characteristics together, making it easier to understand and study the relationships between different elements. Additionally, the periodic table is continuously updated as new elements are discovered, ensuring its relevance and accuracy in modern chemistry.
How is the Periodic Table used as a tool to study chemistry?
A periodic table is used to sort the 114 elements known to man. It is sorted in groups (alkalis, halogens, noble gases) and according to the number of electrons the elements have.
