How did the study of the atom contribute to our understanding of the periodic table of the elements? (1 point) Item
O
Atoms are representative of elements, so scientists scaled up atomic characteristics to understand
elemental characteristics, allowing scientists to arrange elements in a periodic table.
Item
Item
Elements are made of atoms, so understanding atoms provided information about elements, which led to
the organization of the periodic table
Item
Item
O
The determination of electron charge led to an understanding of how atoms interact with one another, which
facilitated the organization of the periodic table.
Item
Item
Experiments that identified characteristics of atoms provided scientists with atomic weights and atomic
numbers, which were used to organize the periodic table.
