Beryllium is a gray, strong, resistant to corrosion, brittle in pure form, and light element. It’s about three times the density of lithium (Li), but it’s about 1.5 times less dense then aluminum (Al). It’s also terribly toxic. Breath it in, and it can cause pneumonia and other damage to the lungs. You also may develop berylliosis, which is a lung disorder that can damage other organs. It’s caused by breathing in beryllium in a workspace, and about 20% of people who contract this disorder die. Another side effect of beryllium is CBD, which stands for ‘chronic beryllium disease’ (not ‘cannabidiol’, like in CBD oil). This is caused by allergic reactions or by hypersensitivity to it. It causes weakness, breathing problems and tiredness. Hands and feet can turn blue, and some people develop anorexia (an eating disorder). Beryllium is also a carcinogen (cancer-causing) and it can cause DNA damage. Beryllium-copper alloy is used for missile and rocket parts, non-sparking tools, and golf clubs among other things. Beryllium oxide (BeO) is used to make microwave parts, parts of electronics, electron tubes, a type of glass, rocket nozzles along with other things. Beryllium chloride (BeCl2) and beryllium fluoride (BeF2) are used as chemical reagents (things that help cause chemical reactions). Beryllium is also used in x-ray tubes. Beryllium as beryllium aluminum cyclosilicate, or beryl (Be3Al2Si6O18), creates crystals. The green version of beryl are known as emeralds, where the blue version of beryl is known as aquamarine. Beryllium’s name comes from the Greek word for ‘beryl’, which is ‘beryllo’.

Berilio en un gris, fuerte, resistente a la corrosión, quebradizo en su pura forma, y un ligero elemento. Es aproximado tres veces el densidad de litio (Li), pero es aproximado 1.5 veces menos denso de aluminio (Al). También es terriblemente tóxico. Inhalare berilo, y puede causar neumonía y otro daño a los pulmones. Tú también puede contraer beriliosis, que es un desorden de los pulmones que puede dañar otros órganos. Beriliosis es causado por inhalando berilio en el área de trabajo, y alrededor de 20% de personas que contraer ese desorden mueren. Otro efecto de berilio es enfermedad crónica de berilio. Ese es causado por un reacción de alergia o por hipersensibilidad a berilio. Se causa debilidad, dificultad para respirar, y cansancio. Manos y pies pueden cambiar a azul, y algunas personas desarrollan anorexia (un trastorno alimentario). Berilo también es un agente cancerígeno (un causador de cáncer) y puede dañar ADN. Aleación de berilio-cobre es usado para partes de misil y cohetes, herramientas que no chispan, clubs de golf y otras cosas. Óxido de berilio (BeO) es usado para crear partes de microondas, partes de electrónicos, tubos de electrones, un tipo de vidrio, boquillas de cohete, y otras cosas. Cloruro de berilio (BeCl2) y fluoruro de berilio (BeF2) son usaron como reactivos de químicos (cosas que causan reacciones). Berilio también es usado en tubos de rayos X. Berilio como ciclosilicato de aluminio de berilio, o berilo (Be3Al2Si6O18), hace cristales. El versión verde de berilo es conocido como esmeraldas. El versión azul de berilo es conocido como aguamarina. El nombre para berilio viene del palabra griego para ‘berilo’, que es ‘beryllo’.

What are the types of multilingualism? - Multilingualism part two

Image
The types of multilingualism are:  Individual Social Institutional Folk Elective  Ambilingual  Symmetric Asymmetric Individual multilingualism is where one specific individual knows two or more languages. Social multilingualism is where one community (ex. a town or a city) knows two or more languages. Each individual does not need to know all the languages or the community, but the community as a whole needs to speak at least two languages. Institutional multilingualism is when a company (or institution) offers their services in two or more languages. Again, each individual that work in the company does not need to know two or more languages. Folk multilingualism is when an individual uses two or more languages in their everyday life as a necessity. For example, at work you speak english, but you speak spanish with your grandparents because they don’t know english. Elective multilingualism is when an individual learns other languages because they wi

What does multilingualism mean? - Multilingualism part one

Image
Multilingualism means someone or something knows two or more languages. Some synonyms for multilingualism are plurilingualism, polyglot and polylingual. Be careful around the words ‘bilingual’ and ‘trilingual’, though. Bilingual means you know exactly two languages, white trilingual means you know exactly three languages. To truly be multilinguistic, you need to be able to function (read, write, and speak) well in two or more languages. These languages do not have to be the same fluency as one another, you can be better in one language and still be multilinguistic. Another use of the word ‘bilingual’ is in the insult for immigrant children, bilingual children. This usually refers to Mexican or Latino immigrants who immigrate to the US and speak Spanish. These people don’t usually speak two languages, however. The only major antonym for multilingualism is monolingual, which means you only speak one language. A sign that says 'exchange' in English, German, Italian, Spanish an

For the reason that it’s brittle, boron is used mostly in compounds. Boron nitride (BN) makes crystals similar to crystals that carbon (C) can create. Cubic boron nitride is very hard, and under certain definitions of ‘hard’, it could b
