Phosphorus itself is not a luster; it is a non-metallic element that can exist in different forms, including a white powder. However, some compounds of phosphorus, such as phosphorus pentoxide, can have a luster.
Phosphorus is not typically described as having a luster like metals; instead, it is usually found in several allotropes, such as white, red, and black phosphorus. White phosphorus has a waxy appearance and can be somewhat shiny, while red phosphorus is more opaque and dull. Black phosphorus has a layered structure and can exhibit a metallic luster, but overall, phosphorus does not have a consistent luster characteristic like metals do.
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.
