The Periodic Table of Elements Period

The History of the Periodic Table of Elements The horizontal rows in the periodic table.
Johann Dobereiner Group or Family
In 1817, a German chemist Dobereiner formed the
The vertical columns in the periodic table.
Triads Of Elements discovered that the relative atomic
mass of the middle element in each triad was close to Group 1- Alkali Metals

two elements. Group 2- Alkaline Earth Metals
Dobereiner’s Triads Group 17- Halogens

Group 18- Noble Gases

While group 13-16 are named based from the first


element found in their families such as:

Group 13- Boron Group

Group 14- Carbon Group

Group 15- Nitrogen Group
