Early matchstick makers used to use white phosphorous, which was explosive and dangerous. Modern matches use a mixture containing red phosphorous instead, which burns more slowly and much cleaner.
Strike-anywhere matches use phosphorus sesquisulfide, mixed with other minerals (such as potassium chlorate) so that it's still reasonably safe: it requires a vigorous rubbing motion to ignite, so it won't just ignite from rubbing against other match heads while sitting in the box.

Phosphorous will make a covalent bond, for example in the widely used neutral ligand, triphenyl phosphorous (PPh3).Some of the covalent complexes are charged, for example phosphate (PO4-3) however the phosphorous itself is covalently bound.

phosphorous is kept immersed in water because it reacts with air.
matchsticks
Borrowing Matchsticks was created in 1980.
Chemical energy is stored inside the matchsticks
Generally this means playing poker with matchsticks as chips. So each player would start with the same number of matchsticks and bet with them as if they were chips.
Phophorus can appear white, red, black, yellow, or colorless.
To make Roman numerals with matchsticks, you can use the matchsticks as lines and arrange them to represent the different symbols of Roman numerals. For example, one matchstick represents "I," two matchsticks placed side by side represent "II," three matchsticks represent "III," and so on. Use a combination of single matchsticks and different arrangements to create the desired Roman numeral.
