BERYLLIUM<br>1. </strong>Properties and Characteristics: <br>- Uniquely strong and light <br>- Used to make cell phones, missiles and aircrafts<br>- Beryllium is known to be highly toxic<br>- A relatively rare element<br>- The element is originally known as glucinium, named by the Greeks meaning sweet to reflect its characteristic taste. But chemists later discovered that it is very toxic and therefore should never be tasted.<br><strong>2. </strong>When discovered: In 1978 by Louis Nocolas Vauquelin, who found it in the oxide form in beryl and a green coloured variety of beryl, emerald. <br><strong>3. </strong>Where is it most abundant: United States, China and Kazakhstan.<br><strong>4.</strong> How is it harvested: Extracted from the mineral beryl which is either sintered using an extraction agent or melted into a soluble mixture<br><br><strong>B. NITROGEN<br></strong>     - Properties and Characteristics: Colourless and odourless unreactive gas that forms about 78% of the earth's atmosphere.<br>     - When discovered: Discovered in 1772 by Daniel Rutherford. <br>     - Where is it most abundant: Common element found in the universe, estimated at about seventh in total abundance in Milky Way and Solar System. <br>     - How is it harvested: Obtained from liquefied air through a process known as fractional distillation.<br><br><strong>C. BERYLLIUM NITRIDE<br>1. </strong>Properties and Characteristics: <br>- Appears as yellow or white powder<br>- Hazardous <br>- Prepared by heating beryllium metal powder with dry nitrogen in an oxygen-free atmosphere in temperatures between 700 and 1400 degree Celsius </div><div>-  Beryllium nitride reacts with mineral acidic producing ammonia<br><strong>2.</strong> Uses: Refractory ceramics, nuclear reactors, and radioactive carbon-14 for tracer applications.<br><br></div>]]></description>
