Аннотация:The Periodic Table of all Chemical Elements has been, for the first time, designed and graphically displayed as a pervasive natural law by the Russian scientist Dmitri Mendeleev in March 1869, followed immediately by a large jump in pure and applied chemistry, physics and other natural sciences, and in education. The Periodic Table of Elements covers most of preceding efforts of other researches on the same subject; it was convincingly supported by the famous quantitative graphs of various elemental properties by Julius Lothar Meyer. During the past one and a half centuries, the Periodic Table has undoubtedly become the true icon of chemistry, having inspired numerous scientists of various specialities, philosophical thinkers, bel-esprits and bread-and-butter scholars as well. Thereby it has opened up new exciting horizons for innovative sustainable developments and improved advances of humankind. Periodic Tables have become an integral part of basic natural sciences, of all chemical classrooms, and even of popular culture and arts across the globe (Ball, 2019; Chapman, 2019; Düllmann, 2019; Goodilin et al., 2019; Gorbunova et al., 2019; Liddle, 2019; Poliakoff et al., 2019; Radford, 2019; Rahm et al., 2019; Rampling, 2019; Scerri, 2019; Shaik et al., 2019).
