Question

Which fact was most likely discovered between the time of Mendeleev’s table and the time of Moseley’s table that helped Moseley develop his version?

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of protons in an atom is different than the atom's total mass.

Explanation:

Mendeleev had presented the first structured periodic table in 1869. But, in 1913, Henry Moseley developed the modern periodic table. The crucial difference between the two periodic tables is that Mendeleev's periodic table is generated on the basis of the atomic masses of chemical elements while the chemical element's atomic numbers were the main focus of Moseley's periodic table. There were just 56 chemical elements in Mendeleev's periodic table. On the other hand, 74 chemical elements are presented in Moseley's periodic table.
