Beryllium and Lithium have many differences. Lithium reacts readily with water, where Beryllium does not. Lithium has a fairly low melting point, and Beryllium has a high melting point. Beryllium is highly toxic, and Lithium is fairly nontoxic. Both are metals, and have metallic appearance and conduct electricity but Beryllium more brittle than Lithium is.
