All atoms have mass (atomic mass). But what is the chemical element that has 9,012182 as atomic mass?
The answer is Beryllium. There is so much cool stuff about Beryllium that I would keep reading if I were you.
Alright now to the facts!

Beryllium Overview
Atomic Mass
Description
Hard, brittle, steel-gray metal. Lightest rigid metal. Formerly called glucinium (Gl) for its sweet but deadly taste.
Atomic Symbol
Be (Beryllium)
Discovery
Discovered By: Fredrich Wöhler, A.A.Bussy
Year: 1798
Location: Germany/France

State at 20 °C
Solid
Sources
Found mostly in minerals like beryl [AlBe3(Si6O18)] and chrysoberyl (Al2BeO4). Pure beryllium is obtained by chemically reducing beryl mineral. Also by electrolysis of beryllium chloride.
