Beryllium

Today in chemistry, I learned that beryllium is the fourth element on the periodic table. It has 4 protons and neutrons, and has exactly 5 electrons, and it's atomic mass number is 9.01. This element looks like a planet, and the element symbol is Be. Beryllium is a metal, and is steel gray in color, and has many properties. It has one of the highest melting points of all light metals. Beryllium is used as an alloying agent in producing beryllium copper. Other uses of Beryllium include windshield frame, brake discs, support beams, and other structural components of the space shuttle. I have to say, that Beryllium is a great element to talk about, and most definitely one to learn a lot about. :D
