Chemist and inventor Dmitri Mendeleev first presented his periodic table on this day in 1869 to the Russian Chemical Society.

The periodic table is an arrangement of chemical elements, ordered by their atomic number, electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties. The first periodic table contained 56 elements. This number has now increased to 118.

Mendeleev was nominated for the 1906 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the periodic system, but the Nobel Committee instead recognised French chemist Henri Moissan who isolated the element fluorine in 1886.

Since then, several scientists have received Nobel Prizes for their contributions to Mendeleev's table. Discover more about how our laureates have added to the periodic table: https://bit.ly/2Y3PU7e
