text: Beryllium is nonmagnetic and resistant to concentrated nitric acid.
text: Beryllium is resistant to corrosion; weight for weight, it is stronger than steel, and because of its low density (about 1/3 that of aluminum) it has found extensive use in the aerospace industry.
text: The reason why Beryllium is resistant to concentrated nitric acid is that when left in air, Beryllium reacts with air forming a thin film of BeO – a hard oxide of the metal – on the metal’s surface.
text: Beryllium has a relative low density and is resistant to corrosion.
