$4$. Dmitri MendeleevFormulated the $Periodic \ Law$ $(1869)$,stating that properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic weights.
$5$. Lothar MeyerPlotted physical properties like atomic volume against atomic weight,showing a periodic pattern $(1868)$.
$6$. Henry MoseleyEstablished the $Modern \ Periodic \ Law$ $(1913)$ by showing that properties are a periodic function of atomic number $(Z)$.
