  2. Beryllium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryllium

    Primordial beryllium contains only one stable isotope, 9 Be, and therefore beryllium is, uniquely among all stable elements with an even atomic number, a monoisotopic and mononuclidic element. Plot showing variations in solar activity, including variation in sunspot number (red) and 10 Be concentration (blue).

  3. Beryl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryl

    Beryl (/ ˈ b ɛr əl / BERR-əl) is a mineral composed of beryllium aluminium silicate with the chemical formula Be 3 Al 2 Si 6 O 18. [6] Well-known varieties of beryl include emerald and aquamarine. Naturally occurring hexagonal crystals of beryl can be up to several meters in size, but terminated crystals are relatively rare. Pure beryl is ...

    Even the compound beryllium fluoride, which is the most ionic beryllium compound, has a low melting point and a low electrical conductivity when melted. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] [ 14 ] All the alkaline earth metals have two electrons in their valence shell, so the energetically preferred state of achieving a filled electron shell is to lose two electrons ...

    Beryllium is unique as being the only monoisotopic element with both an even number of protons and an odd number of neutrons. There are 25 other monoisotopic elements but all have odd atomic numbers, and even numbers of neutrons. Of the 10 radioisotopes of beryllium, the most stable are 10 Be with a half-life of 1.387(12) million years [nb 1 ...
