A Mendeleev's Periodic table does not include noble gases while Modern Periodic table includes them. Mendeleev's Periodic table does not include non-metals while Moderm Periodic table includes them. C Mendeleev's Periodic table does not include halogens while Modern Periodic table includes them. D Mendeleev's Periodic table has only 7 groups while Modern Periodic table has 8 groups. Mendeleev's Periodic table organise elements by increasing atomic number while the Modern Periodic table organise elements by atomic mass.
