to Be or not to Be

[AntonioLao]

In this context, Be is the chemical symbol for the element beryllium. Relatively, in the Solar System, the rule of chemical abundance is not to Be. Why this is so can only be hypothesized as the oddness of baryon composition. Beryllium is composed of 4 protons and 5 neutrons. The first is even and the second is odd as well as prime. This is the first natural prime composition for neutron number. Although helium and lithium preceding beryllium whose atomic number are primes, respectively, 2 (first and only even prime) and 3, their neutron numbers are even, respectively, 2 and 4. Although boron and carbon succeeding beryllium whose atomic number are 5 and 6, respectively, their neutron numbers are even, respectively, 6 and 6. More detailed descriptions of abundances (but maybe outdated) can be found in Fred Hoyle's book: Astronomy and Cosmology - A Modern Course, 1975 by W. Freeman and Company.

Except for nitrogen with comparatively high abundance, the neutron number of the first 28 elements are all even. Although nitrogen has odd neutron number, its mass number is even. These patterns seem to indicate that abundances has prioritized factors of evenness. The first factor is the neutron number. The second factor is the mass number. The third factor can be the proton number. However, these factors become increasingly unreliable as the atomic number increases. This variability causes the loss of stability for heavier elements, which allows nuclear fission to occur. The most radioactive element becomes the least abundant and the most unstable, implying that the big bang singularity is the ultimate radioactive element with zero abundance since it happened only once at the birth of the universe. The big bang singularity is to be but only once and for all.
