One of the first things that we learn in school when they start us on chemistry is the periodic table. Even though it has gone through a variety of changes over the years, it is still considered an the first step in learning about chemistry.
For performing any experiment that involves combining elements, the knowledge of the periodic table is a must since it describes the atomic structure of all the elements that have been, till date discovered by man.
Also, we get to know about the properties f each of these elements as well as their family groupings.
