Yes, it is the element which made steel so brittle
a nonmetal because a metal is shiny and strong so a nonmetal is brittle and dull
Elements that are very brittle and have no metallic luster are typically classified as nonmetals. Examples include sulfur, phosphorus, and carbon (in the form of graphite). These elements tend to be poor conductors of heat and electricity.
No, phosphorus is brittle and cannot be hammered into shape like metals. It is a non-metal element that is usually found in a solid state with a waxy appearance, and attempts to hammer it would likely result in it breaking or crumbling.
Sulfur, oxygen, phosphorus, and fluorine are all examples of nonmetals on the periodic table. They tend to have properties like being brittle, poor conductors of heat and electricity, and having lower melting and boiling points compared to metals.
phosphorous might add increased atmospheric corrosion resistance, however, it may be more prone to stress corrosion cracking because of the increased hardness. In general phosphorous adds strength, but reduces ductility / makes the steel more brittle; in amounts less than 0.30% it has little effect on the weldability of low-carbon steel.

Phosphorus is a non-metal. because It has Non - metal properties Like it is Brittle non lustrous etc .
Phosphorus is not very malleable as it is a nonmetal

Sulfur decreases ductility and notch impact toughness especially in the transverse direction. Weldability decreases with increasing sulfur content. Sulfur is found primarily in the form of sulfide inclusions. Sulfur levels are normally controlled to low levels. The only exception is free-machining steels, where sulfur is added to improve machinability.
As brittle as glass.
Phosphorus is a solid. There are various forms, allotropes of phosphorus:-White phosphorus consisting of P4 molecules - most familiar formRed phosphorus with chain structureViolet phosphorus with a complex layer structureBlack phosphorus a metallic looking substance with a layer structure
Like other matter of biological origin, peanut brittle is composed primarily of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen. Other elements present in small amounts ( based on the nutritional information of peanuts) include calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. Some sulfur may also be present in the amino acids.
