1862

Alexandre-Emile Beguyer de Chancourtois plotted the atomic weights of elements on paper tape and wound them, spiral like, around a cylinder. He called his model the telluric helix or screw.

1864

English chemist John Newlands proposed his Law of octaves based on the periodic similarity every seventh element.

1868

Lothar Meyer compiled a periodic table based on regular repeating pattern of physical property such as molar volume. Once again the elements were arranged in order of increasing atomic weights.

1869

Dmitri Mendeleev produced a periodic table based on atomic weights but arranged “periodically”. Elements with similar properties appeared under each other. Gaps were left for yet to be discovered elements.

1894

William Ramsay discovered the noble gases and realized that they represented a new group in the periodic table. The noble gases added further proof to the accuracy of Mendeleev’s table.

1913

Henry Moseley determined the atomic number of each of the known elements. He realized that arranging the elements in order of increasing atomic number rather than atomic weight gave a better fit within the “periodic table”

1944

Glenn Seaborg proposed an ‘actinide hypothesis’ and published his version of the table in 1945. The lanthanide and actinide series form the two rows under the periodic table of elements.
