Attempts of Elements Classification | summary

The video tutorial summarizes the evolution of element classification, starting with Mendeleev's periodic table, which arranged elements by atomic weights and properties, but had limitations due to isotopes. Mosely later discovered that atomic numbers, not weights, determine periodicity, leading to the modern periodic table with elements arranged by atomic numbers in groups and periods, including inert gases and lanthanides/actinides.
