The Modern periodic table is important because it is organized to provide a great deal of information about elements and how they relate to one another in one easy-to-use reference. The table can be used to predict the properties of elements, even those that have not yet been discovered. It is called the periodic table because of the way the elements are arranged. The horizontal rows (which go from left to right) are called 'periods' and the vertical columns (going from up to down) are called 'groups'. Refer to the table and answer
