The modern periodic table is arranged in order of increasing. true or false

Increasing atomic number - True

Explanation:

The modern table is based on Mendeleev’s table, except the modern table arranges the elements by increasing atomic number instead of atomic mass.

The Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom, and this number is unique for each element. For example, Hydrogen has an atomic number of 1, Calcium has an atomic number of 20.

In the modern periodic table the elements are further arranged into:

- rows, called periods, in order of increasing atomic number. Elements in the same periods have the same number of shells.

- vertical columns, called groups, where the elements have similar properties. Elements in the same group has the same number of valency (outermost number of electrons)

answer : a model is often used to explain and make things easier to understand when any scientific topic needs to be demonstrated and explained.

as in this case where a scientist wants to use a model to present the results of his detailed scientific investigation. he should do it as it will him to make the audience understand the concept in a much better way. also, it can be changed according to new scientific understandings.
