Facts about the
Classification of the Element Nobelium
Nobelium classified as an element in the Actinide series as one of
the "Rare Earth Elements" which can located in Group 3 elements of
the Periodic Table and in the 6th and 7th periods. The Rare Earth
Elements are of the Lanthanide and Actinide series. Most of the
elements in the Actinide series are synthetic or man-made.

Facts and Info about
the element Argon - IUPAC and the Modern Standardised Periodic Table
The Standardised Periodic Table in use today was agreed by the
International Union of Pure Applied Chemistry, IUPAC, in 1985
which includes the Nobelium element. The famous Russian Scientist,
Dimitri Mendeleev, perceived the correct classification method of
"the periodic table" for the 65 elements which were known in his
time. Nobelium was discovered by Albert Ghiorso, Glenn T. Seaborg,
John R. Walton and Torborn Sikkeland in 1958 at the University of
California, Berkeley. The Standardised Periodic Table now recognises more periods
and elements than Dimitri Mendeleev knew in his day but still all
fitting into his concept of the "Periodic Table" in which
Nobelium is
just one element that can be found.
