  1. In 1869, Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev was struggling to organize chemical elements for days. 🧪📚

    Then something incredible happened…

    The arrangement was so accurate that it even predicted elements that had not yet been discovered at the time .🔬

    Sometimes science is not just hard work, it’s also imagination, patterns, and moments of insight ⚡

  4. Interesting that the group 4 elements on the @compoundchem infographic

    Carbon, Silicon etc, whereas Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_4_

    Suggests group 4 is Titanium, Zirconium, Most periodic tables are group 1,2 on the left, then there is a jump over the transition to group 3, Boron, Aluminium, Transition elements are numbered IIIB, IVB (which wikipedia lists as group 4) 2nd group of the transition elements.

    So which is correct here, or does it depend on the periodic table you are looking at?
