Phosphorus is a dangerous chemical because it is highly flammable when exposed to air. It is also toxic and poisonous. Excess phosphorus or phosphate content in food can cause kidney and bone problems.
Phosphorus has four allotropes which have remarkably different properties. White, Red, Yellow, and Violet. It is the origin word for phosphorescence. All in all a fascinating, and dangerous element, and quite essential for life.
No, phosphorus is NOT in glow sticks. Phosphorus is way to dangerous to be put in glow sticks. While a glow stick does have phosphorescence (meaning glow after illumination), it does not have phosphorus.
Phosphorus is all about fire. White phosphorus (the dangerous form) literally glows in the dark because it's always reacting with the air around it (this glowing is where phosphorus got its name). Red phosphorus, which is exactly the same stuff just in a different molecular form, is quite stable and safe to keep around. Yes Phosphorus powder is deadly.
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
No, it is extremely dangerous to store white phosphorus in the mouth. White phosphorus can ignite spontaneously in contact with air and can cause severe burns or even be fatal if ingested or inhaled. It should never be used in magic shows as a fire-producing effect.
it glows
White phosphorus is very dangerous and not just because it is poisonous. Red phosphorus is considered less poisonous.
I believe Phosphorus and Calcium are the two main elements used in fertilizers. Phosphorus can be very dangerous to the ecosystem as demonstrated in the phosphorus cycle.

Its an element of vital importance in the growth and health of plants and animals.

this element glows from white phosphorus and is an allotropeit comes in colorless waxy whiyt
Phosphorus is a non metal element. Atomic mass of it is 31.
they a sharp and dangerous
It burns slowly in oxygen causing a glow that will not harm you. It also can be used as a fertillizer.
Phosphorus is toxic. It can be acutely toxic in larger quantities, and can cause a gruesome condition called "phossy jaw" in lower doses. Phosphorus is also pyrophoric, meaning it will spontaneously ignite in air. The oxide formed from burning phosphorus is also toxic.
Its too Dangerous
