Dmitri Mendeleev and the History of the Periodic Table

Dmitri Mendeleev, a Russian polymath who conducted studies into many fields of science, is known for creating the modern periodic table and correctly predicting the properties of several undiscovered elements. Building upon the work of scientists before him, Dmitri Mendeleev published the version of the periodic table that would come to be the periodic table used across the world to this day and revolutionized modern chemistry.

Mendeleev should definitely get credit for those elements

Thank you for the tribute to Dmitri Mendeleev, the great mind and the great soul ! Thank you Russia for your great son.
Please don't mind nasty comment. There are still many people who were not able to graduate high school.

It is most amazing that Dmitri Mendeleev saw the Periodic Table in a dream. “Knowledge is a light which God casteth into the heart of whomsoever He willeth." ~ Bahá’u’lláh, Baha'i Faith

The audio quality is better in this video. Did you get a new mic?

[fine]

The author of the clip is Russian? Good pronunciation of the Russian language.

[khoanguyenviet]

Not enough picture and the voice is a bit small

[robrobinhembram]

Then that Vodka guy must have been even greater than Mendeleev!

[bioluminescence]

People ripped him off on those element discoveries

[philopolymath]

Mendeleev did NOT accurately predict any elements. He was a serial plagiarist.

Not trying to be a nerd but he was born and died in Russia he was not born in Siberia so I bet most of the information in this video is false🙂
