A number of places and objects are associated with the name and achievements of the scientist.

In [[Saint Petersburg]] his name was given to [[D. I. Mendeleev Institute for Metrology]], the National Metrology Institute,<ref>{{cite web |author=ВНИИМ Дизайн Груп |url=http://www.vniim.ru/index.en.html |title=D. I.

Next to it there is a monument to him that consists of his sitting statue and a depiction of his periodic table on the wall of the establishment.

In the [[Twelve Collegia]] building, now being the centre of [[Saint Petersburg State University]] and in Mendeleev's time – Head Pedagogical Institute – there is [[Dmitry Mendeleev's Memorial Museum Apartment]]<ref>{{cite web|author=Saint-PetersburgState University |url=http://www.eng.spbu.ru/university/culture/museums/mendeleev/ |title=Museum-Archives n.a.

[[Mendelevium]], which is a synthetic chemical element with the symbol Md (formerly Mv) and the atomic number 101, was named after Mendeleev. It is a metallic radioactive transuranic element in the actinide series, usually synthesized by bombarding einsteinium with alpha particles.

The mineral mendeleevite-Ce, {{chem|Cs|6|(Ce|22|Ca|6|)|(Si|70|O|175|)(O|H|,F)|14|(H|2|O)|21}}, was named in Mendeleev's honor in 2010.<ref>{{cite web |title=Mendeleevite-Ce |url=https://www.mindat.org/min-40154.html |website=Mindat.org |access-date=13 December 2019}}</ref> The related species mendeleevite-Nd, {{chem|Cs|6|[(Nd|,REE)|23|Ca|7|]|(Si|70|O|175|)(O|H|,F)|19|(H|2|O)|16}}, was described in 2015.<ref>{{cite web |title=Mendeleevite-Nd |url=https://www.mindat.org/min-46701.html |website=Mindat.org |access-date=13 December 2019}}</ref>
