In the 1920s, who created the Left-Step Periodic Table (LSPT) of the chemical elements, basing the positions of the elements on patterns in the arrangement of electrons around the atomic nucleus?

  1. A
    Dmitri Mendeleev
  2. B
    Glenn Seaborg
  3. C
    Charles Janet
  4. D
    Lothar Meyer

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

In 1928, the French engineer and polymath Charles Janet created the Left-Step Periodic Table (LSPT). It arranges chemical elements logically based on the filling of electronic orbital shells (s,p,d,f) in reverse order, placing the s-block elements on the far right (or left-step) and grouping elements continuously by their quantum numbers.
