Without his breakthrough, chemistry would be unrecognizable from "summary" of Mendeleyev's Dream by Paul Strathern
The significance of Mendeleev's breakthrough in the field of chemistry cannot be overstated. His creation of the periodic table revolutionized the way in which elements were understood and classified. Prior to his work, the study of chemistry was a chaotic and disorganized discipline, with no clear structure or framework to guide scientific inquiry. Mendeleev's genius lay in his ability to see patterns and connections where others saw only randomness and chaos. By arranging the known elements in a logical and systematic manner, he was able to predict the existence and properties of undiscovered elements, thereby filling in gaps in the peri...
