Abstract
THE last half-volume (eightieth) of the new Russian “Encyclopædic Dictionary” contains a remarkable paper by Prof. Mendeléeff on the chemical elements, of which the following is a slightly abridged translation. Together with the articles on matter and on the periodic law, which Mendeléeff contributed to previous issues of the same dictionary, and a paper, “An Attempt at a Chemical Comprehension of the World's Ether,” published in a Russian review, this article represents the fundamental physical and chemical conceptions of the great chemist as they now appear in connection with the discoveries of recent years.
