Atomic Symbol for Beryllium (& Cool facts: Sources, Color, Uses and more...) 2022

Some atom symbols are easy to figure out, some are not...

The only sure thing is that every atom has a symbol. But what is the atom whose symbol is Be?

The answer is Beryllium (Be). However there is a lot of stuff about Beryllium that people don't know. Let me walk you through...

Beryllium Overview

Atomic Symbol

Be (Beryllium)

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.

Description

Hard, brittle, steel-gray metal. Lightest rigid metal. Formerly called glucinium (Gl) for its sweet but deadly taste.

Name Origin

Greek: beryllos, "beryl" (a mineral).

State at 20 °C

Solid

Uses

Its ability to absorb large amounts of heat makes it useful in spacecraft, missiles, aircraft, etc. Emeralds are beryl crystals with chromium traces giving them their green color.

Discovery

Year: 1798
Location: Germany/France
