Beryillium

Type in the c Hello my element is beryllium. It is usually found dug out of the ground. Especially were there are emeralds because beryllium is in emeralds. Other than emeralds it is also found in electronics, missiles, rockets, jewelry etc. The chemical characteristics of beryllium are that its melting point is 1278 degrees Celsius. Its boiling point is 2970 degrees Celsius. Also when you put the nucleus of beryllium and the nucleus of helium together then you get a nucleus of carbon, which is another element. Other physical characteristics are that beryllium is grey, hard, steel like metal. However beryllium is a very poisonous so even though it is very sweet it is not a good idea to lick it. What the decease is called when you lick a beryllium is called berylliosis. And since beryllium is non-magnetic it is very good to use for electronics. Beryllium has an atomic mass and an atomic number. The atomic mass is 9 and atomic mass is the mass of protons neutrons and electrons put together. The atomic number is 4 and the atomic number is the number of protons and electrons in an atom of an element. In beryllium there are 4 protons and electrons and 5 neutrons. Protons are the positive charges that are in an atom. Neutrons are the neutral charge that are and an atom. And electrons give negative electric charge in an atom. The history of beryllium is that beryllium was discovered in 1798 by a scientist named Vaquelin. The way that he discovered beryllium was he found it wile he was digging for emeralds since beryllium is in emeralds.
