Which describes why mendeleev succeeded where others failed?
he understood electron structure.
he looked at potential uses.
he recognized that there were metals and nonmetals.
he realized that some elements had not been discovered.

Explanation:

Some scientists that tried to arrange the list of elements known before Mendeleev include Antoine Lavoisier, Johann Döbereiner, Alexandre Béguyer de Chancourtois, John Newlands, and Julius Lothar Meyer.

Dimitri Mendeleev was so succesful that he is recognized as the most important in such work.

Mendeleev by writing the properties of the elements on cards elaborated by him, and "playing" trying to order them, realized that, some properties regularly (periodically) repeated.

The elements were sorted in increasing atomic weight (which is not the actual order in the periodic table), but when an element did not meet the pattern discovered, he moved it to a position were its properties fitted.

The amazing creativity of Mendeleev led him to leave blanks for what he thought were places that should be occupied by elements yet undiscovered. More amazing is that he was able to predict the properties of some of those elements.

When years after some of the elements were discovered, the genius of Mendeleev was proven because the "new" elements had the properties predicted by him.

no statements shown

the atomic number of carbon is six, which means that a carbon atom has six protons. carbon has three naturally occurring isotopes: carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14. which of these statements are true about carbon and its isotopes? select all that appl

hey there!

mass = 6.75 g

volume =   9 cm³

therefore:

d = mass / volume

d   = 6.75 / 9

d = 0.7 g/cm³
