Because of the similarities between elements of the same period, this often created problems in establishing an order; Moseley's work enabled the change of the atomic number from an arbitrary selection to a definable property, measurable through experimentation.

Answer 2

The chart used by Moseley was more accurate at predicting where new elements would be placed - due to fact that Moseley's chart was based on using the atomic number of the element, not the chemical properties or the atomic mass as Mendeleev.

Mendeleev's table had organized the elements by their atomic mass whereas Moseley's table had organized the elements by their atomic number.

• This difference is the major reason Mosely's table is more accurate in order to place newly discovered elements:

• The Moseley chart was based on using the atomic number of the element, not the chemical properties.
• the similarities between elements of the same period caused problems in other's charts in establishing the place in the correct order.
• Isotopes are also caused problems.
• Moseley's work enabled the change of the atomic number from an arbitrary selection measurable through an experiment.

Thus, due to fact that Moseley's chart was based on using the atomic number of the element, not the chemical properties or the atomic mass as Mendeleev.
