21
Q

Who is Dmitri Mendeleev?

A

A russian chemist who formulated the periodic laws and created the original periodic table in 1869

26
Q

What are “periods”?

A

Every row across in a periodic table. Each element in a period has the same number of shells

27
Q

What is the difference between a heterogenous and homogenous mixture?
