Since the time of discovering the Periodic Law and the development of the Periodic Table of Elements (PTE) by an outstanding scientist D.I.Mendeleev 145 years have passed. The Periodic Law and Table of Elements adequately withstood the test of time during which the knowledge was enriched with numerous scientific facts. At the beginning of 20th century the inert gases discovered by William Ramsay were placed by D.I.Mendeleev in a separate zero group of PTE. In addition, D.I.Mendeleev proposed the hypothesis about possible existence in PTE the elements х and y to the left of hydrogen. For searching and predicting the characteristics of the elements D.I.Mendeleev drew attention to the problem of ether which is now identified with Dirac’s structural vacuum. The possible candidates for х and y which can take places in PTE to the left of hydrogen are considered. These may include positronium, neutrinos and neutronium. In order to justify their placement in the PTE updating the concept of atom is carried out. The reality of the thirteenth unknown element predicted by D.I.Mendeleev is noted.
