The periodic table is one of the most important tools in the history of chemistry. It describes the atomic properties of every known chemical element in a concise format, including the atomic number, atomic mass and relationships between the elements. Elements with similar chemical properties are arranged in columns in the periodic table.

The table thus is a quick reference as to what elements may behave the same chemically or which may have similar weights or atomic structures.

Hope this answer helps you
