Dimitri Mendeleev was the first to put elements together on a table. He knew there were elements missing but he noticed a trend in some of the elements known at the time. Sodium, Lithium and other alkali metals all have the same properties so he put them under the same column and created other columns with similar attributes (Halogens, Noble gases, Alkaline earth metals). Over the years, new elements were discovered and put into the rough outline that Mendeleev created.
I hope that is about what you wanted.

Explanation:
Number 1 and 2, Are good things.
if one is decreasing and the other is benefiting. Otherwise, Here as number 3.
What's the big M? Molecular weight or mol?
Solution:
At the equivalence point, moles NaOH = moles benzoic acid
HA + NaOH ==> NaA + H2O where HA is benzoic acid
At the equivalence point, all the benzoic acid ==> sodium benzoate
A^- + H2O ==> HA + OH- (again, A^- is the benzoate anion and HA is the weak acid benzoic acid)
Kb for benzoate = 1x10^-14/4.5x10^-4 = 2.22x10^-11
Kb = 2.22x10^-11 = [HA][OH-][A^-] = (x)(x)/0.150
x^2 = 3.33x10^-12
x = 1.8x10^-6 = [OH-]
pOH = -log [OH-] = 5.74
pH = 14 - pOH = 8.26
