Re: Difference between beryllium and aluminium
Check the specific gravity. If both peace same volume then you can weight it. Chemical analyses are more complicated and Beryllium is very poisson and carcinogen better don't touch it or work with. It.

No they are different in shape and weight, any chemical alternative to check if this sample is beryllium
