Apr 12, 2007 · This year marks the 100th anniversary of the death of one of the most famous scientists of all time, the Russian chemist Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev (1834–1907). The periodic table that he introduced in 1869 was a monumental achievement—a wonderful mnemonic and a tool that serves to organize the whole of chemistry.
Dmitri Mendeleev, a Russian chemist and teacher, devised the periodic table — a comprehensive system for classifying the chemical elements. Organizing Matter. In the mid-1700s, chemists began actively identifying elements, which are substances made up of just one kind of atom.
