If yu are lking t get a better understanding f the wrld arund yu, chemistry is the perfect subject t study. It's a study f matter(物质), its prperties——ways in which it behaves in special cnditins, and hw it interacts with everything arund it. At the heart f all the discveries,such as medicine, cking, and several ther areas, is ne imprtant table that rganizes elements based n their atmic number and chemical prperties: the peridic table.
Althugh the first peridic table was published in 1869, it was a wrk in prgress fr hundreds,if nt thusands f years.
Since ancient times, peple have been interested in elements such as gld, tin, irn and cpper (which are written as Au, Sn, Fe and Cu in the table) in their natural frms. They were dug up frm the grund and used t make jewelry, guns, cins, and many ther things. Over time, peple became mre curius abut these metals and hw they were made up. In ancient Greece, Aristtle and ther philsphers said things were made frm the elements f earth, water, fire and air. Fr years, this idea was accepted. Then peple began t cnsider this idea again during the Age f Enlightenment.
In 1661, Irish scientist Rbert Byle described an element as smething that“cannt be brken dwn int a simpler matter by a chemical reactin”. Over a century later, Antne-Laurent de Lavisier, Father f Chemistry, wuld publish the first mdern textbk n chemistry. In it, he listed sme matter which he believed shuld be divided as elements int tw grups: metals and nn-metals. Althugh his wrk wasn't cmpletely crrect, it represented a big step frward at that time.
Over the next century, scientists started t divide the elements int different grups depending n their prperties and atmic weights. Hwever, it is Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev wh is usually believed as the first persn t make a peridic table. Althugh ther scientists had handed in tables, they were finally refused by the scientific cmmunity because they were shrt f details.Mendeleev put all f the elements in a prper rder accrding t their atmic mass. He was even smart enugh t leave empty spaces fr elements which hadn't been discvered at the time.Althugh Mendeleev's peridic table wasn't perfect, it set the way r rder which is similar t the ne used tday.
