History

ParameterBerylliumOxygen
HistoryThe element Beryllium was discovered by N. Vauquelin in year 1798 in France. Beryllium derived its name from beryl, a mineral.The element Oxygen was discovered by W. Scheele in year 1771 in Sweden and United Kingdom. Oxygen derived its name from the Greek word oxy-, both 'sharp' and 'acid', and -gen, meaning 'acid-forming'.
