- 
  
  Synthesised transuranic elements (the elements after uranium in the periodic table).
 - 
  
  Determined the atomic number of each of the elements and modified the 'Periodic Law'.
 - 
  
  Arranged the known elements in order of atomic weights & observed similarities between some elements
 - 
  
  Produced a table based on atomic weights but arranged 'periodically' with elements with similar properties under each other. His Periodic Table included the 66 known elements organized by atomic weights.
 - 
  
  Developed an early version of the periodic table, with 28 elements organized by valence.
 - 
  
  Developed groups of 3 elements with similar properties.
 - 
  
  Wrote the first extensive list of elements containing 33 elements & distinguished between metals and non-metals.
