In 1866, John Newlands, an English scientist, arranged the then known elements in the order of increasing atomic masses. He found that every eighth element had properties similar to that of the first. He called it the - (1) Law of Pentamates (2) Law of musical notes (3) Law of Octaves (4) None of the above

1 Answer

Answer :

(3) Law of Octaves Explanation: Newlands compared his discovery to the octaves found in music and thus, he called it the ‘Law of Octaves’. It is also known as ‘Newlands’ Law of Octaves’.
