Russian chemist (1834–1907)
Dmitri Mendeleev was a Russian chemist who, in 1869, created the periodic table of elements by arranging known chemical elements by their atomic weight and properties. His breakthrough organization of the elements became foundational to chemistry and science education, allowing scientists to predict the properties of undiscovered elements and understand the fundamental building blocks of matter.

Quotes
- “In science we must all submit not to what seems to us attractive from one point of view or another, but to what represents an agreement between theory and experiment.”
- “To burn oil!.. You can fuel with money as well.”
- “I wish to establish some sort of system not guided by chance but by some sort of definite and exact principle.”
- “I have no need of proof. The laws of nature, unlike the laws of grammar, admit of no exception.”

Article
Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev (/ˌmɛndəlˈeɪəf/ MEN-dəl-AY-əf; 8 February [O.S. 27 January] 1834 – 2 February [O.S. 20 January] 1907) was a Russian chemist known for formulating the periodic law and creating a version of the periodic table of elements. He used the periodic law not only to correct the then-accepted properties of some known elements, such as the valence and atomic weight of uranium, but also to predict the properties of three elements that were yet to be discovered (germanium, gallium, and scandium). The synthetic element mendelevium is named in his honor.
