· Henry Moseley was born in Dorset on the southwest coast of England in 1887 · In 1906, he entered Trinity College of the University of Oxford · On graduation in 1910 he went Manchester University to work with Ernest Rutherford · He had a full teaching load, but after a year he was relieved and began full-time research · In 1913, by using X-ray spectra, he found a relation between wavelength and atomic number · This helped improve the recently created Periodic Table · When WWI broke out he enlisted in the Royal Engineers · In 1915, Henry was shot and killed by a sniper while telephoning an order

· In 1913, by using x-ray spectra obtained by diffraction in crystals, he found a systematic relation between wavelength and atomic number, otherwise known as Moseley’s Law · Prior to this, atomic numbers had been thought of as a semi-arbitrary ordering, based on atomic numbers · Moseley's discovery showed that atomic numbers were not arbitrary, but have an experimentally measurable basis · With his discovery he was able to rearrange the Periodic Table and putting elements in correct sequence · Moseley’s discovery in 1913 was a huge step in the creation on the Periodic Table today

I hope this information is reliable because im using it for a project! i do not like wiki sites very much :( btw i didnt write this im just seeing if this will show up on the website..yeah it worked.
