Mendeleev arranged the
elements by increasing
atomic ?

Mendeleev arranged the elements in the periodic table on the basis of atomic masses and stated the behavior of the elements in a periodic law. The periodic law is when elements arranged by the atomic masses they exhibit the presence of similar properties. Mendeleev focused on the chemical properties of the elements and Meyer focused on the physical properties of the elements. The change in the periodic table is that the elements are now arranged in the order of their atomic numbers instead of their atomic masses.
