Best Answer

The most deadliest poison would have to be the toxins released by certain bacteria in the Clostridium genus. Botulinum toxin is a serious neurotoxin that disables motor nerves' abilities to release acetylchloline, which is the neurotransmitter that relays nerve signals to muscles, and paralysis occurs. As this progresses the muscles that control the airway and breathing fail. The Botulinun toxin is by far the most deadliest poison. If you were to have the same amount of this poison as there is in a snake bite you could end an entire city.

The LD 50 (for rats) of hydrogen cyanide is lower than the same value for potassium cyanide; HCN is more toxic.

Cyanides are not the most deadly poisons. The botulinum toxin is considered now the most efficient poison.

What is the taste of Potassium cyanide?

Potassium cyanide is the inorganic compound with the formula KCN. This colorless crystalline compound, similar in appearance to sugar, is highly soluble in water. The vast majority of KCN is used in gold mining followed by use in organic synthesis, and electroplating. Smaller applications include jewelry for chemical gilding and buffing. Highly toxic, KCN is odorless but due to hydrolysis, solids emit small amounts of hydrogen cyanide, which smells like bitter almonds (not everyone can smell it-the ability thereof is due to a genetic trait.). It is also used by entomologists as a killing agent in collecting jars, as most insects succumb within seconds, minimizing damage of even the most fragile types.
