(February 8, 1834 – February 2, 1907)
Although previous attempts were made at sequencing and classifying elements, Dmitri Mendeleev conceived the most elaborate and the most accurate of them all. He is therefore credited with one of the most important scientific innovations of the 19th century. His publication (in 1869) was praised for its insightful inclusions. Chief among these were the periodic trends of all the-then known elements, the relationships of those residing in the same groups, and the possibility of predicting the properties of undiscovered ones. The impacts of Mendeleev’s works on Chemistry and Physics were enormous. With them, it became easier to anticipate the characteristics, behaviors and nature of not only elements, but their compounds and mixtures as well. Even today, any student who understands the periodic table will have little or no problem in comprehending other aspects of chemistry. As straightforward as it may seem now, its significance then, cannot be overemphasized. It was after publishing his Periodic Law that Mendeleev collaborated with Lothar Meyer and Robert Bunsen: in upgrading the periodic table. He also made crucial (but obscure) contributions to geology, meteorology and hydrodynamics. Another of his feats pertained to the invention of pyrocollodion, which he achieved via experimentation with nitrocellulose. Apart from introducing the metric system of measurements into the Russian Empire, Dmitri Mendeleev was the sole force behind the establishment of the Russian Chemical Society. Indeed, he presented his periodic table to the society’s assembly on March 6, 1869. Dedicated to him are: the Mendelevium transuranic element, and 313-kilometer-wide Mendeleev lunar crater.
Hello, I like your sapaviva.com and its awesome contents.
Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using? I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a difficult time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
Добры сайт з уражлівым зместам.
This is a well-made website. The summaries are just wonderful. Definitely the best rankings of scientists and mathematicians that I have seen. Also, the “Quotes” section is a brilliant icing to the cake.
Great blog here! Also your site loads up very fast.
It was refreshing reading these wonderful notes about science icons. Please keep up the good work.
Hi, I like your ranking concepts.
I read your blog from time to time.
Very much appreciated.
Hi to everybody, it’s my first visit here. This blog has loads of fine stuffs.
Good write-up
Good discussion!

You did an incredible job. I digg it and often suggest to my friends.
Informative and not too long, just how I like it.
His Periodic Table remains inspiring to many students and researchers.
Like!! Thank you for publishing this awesome article.
Great idea. Thanks.
Hello!I am following your blog for some days now. I like your web template and the way you structured your pages. Is it possible to tell me the name of your template? Thanks.
Spassibo, Mendeleev, … as Russians would say.
It is very well written.

I think this web site has some info for everyone.
I’ll check back later.
Don’t even remember how I ended up here, but this blog is good.
Periodic Table is the soul chemistry.
