From what I learned here and at MathOverflow, where this question was originally posted, I deduce that the answer to it is “no”. I.e. the mathematical proof of the Mendeleev table was not found by now. I am sorry to inform you, dear physicists. And this has nothing in common with the nuances you are talking about, in particular with the problem of ...

$\text{m}\Omega ^{-1}$, means milli-S, that means the resistivity is in the range of kilo-Ohm. What's the problem?
Apparently, the curve in your post shows very low conductivity compared to Cu.

Is ethanol leaving the liquid?
Yes
Does the pressure add energy to the ethanol molecules causing them to gasify and move rapidly near border of gas/liquid and rapid depressurization allows it to escape the liquid and turn back liquid, this time as mist/vapor?
No
Is the added pressure needed?
No
Would same thing happen if we'd rapidly depressurize it ...

The partial pressure of ethanol in the air space above the beer would be approximately given by Raoult's Law. The vapour pressure of ethanol at 20°C is about 5.4kPa and water at the same temperature is 2.3kPa. The percentage by volume of ethanol in Budweiser is 5%, which is about 4% by weight or a mole fraction of 0.016. So the partial pressure of the ...

I answered a question much like this in my Chemistry finals, and that was a several page essay. You'll excuse me if this answer is a rather shorter!
The definitive way to measure molecular size is X-Ray crystallography. This gives you the structure of the crystal including the positions of all the atoms, so you automatically get the molecule size. This ...

The order of magnitude given by Gugg is correct. The molar volume for the succinic acid is
$V_m=\frac{M}{\rho}=\frac{118.09}{1.59}\frac{cm^3}{mol}=74.27cm^{3}/mol$
where $M$ is the molar mass and $\rho$ the density. From this, you find the volume of the molecule to be
$V_{molec}=\frac{V_m}{N_A}=1.23\cdot10^{-22}cm^3 $
