The periodic table of the elements is major part of science and has been used to predict properties of elements that hadn't been discovered yet. It organizes the elements into different families based on their properties. During this web quest, pretend that you are a scientist trying to learn of the history and importance of the periodic table.

This web quest will enable you trace the development of periodic table of elements

Working in a group composed of three members,you will search on for the life and achievements of the scientists who contributed in the development of periodic table of elements.
