Beryllium (Be)

Beryllium videos

The gemstones beryl and emerald are both forms of beryllium aluminium silicate, Be₃Al₂(SiO₃)₆. The French mineralogist Abb� Ren�-Just Ha�y thought they might harbour a new element, and he asked Nicholas Louis Vauquelin, to analyse them and he realised they harboured a new metal and he investigated it. In February 1798 Vauquelin announced his discovery at the French Academy and named the element glaucinium (Greek glykys = sweet) because its compounds tasted sweet. Others preferred the name beryllium, based on the gemstone, and this is now the official name.
Beryllium metal was isolated in 1828 by Friedrich W�hler at Berlin and independently by Antoine-Alexandere-Brutus Bussy at Paris, both of whom extracted it from beryllium chloride (BeCl₂) by reacting this with potassium.
