Is P4 the chemical formula of phosphorous?
P is the chemical symbol for phosphorus. But you are correct in believing that the two most comman allotropes of phosphorus (red and white phosphorus) exist as P4. a tetrahedral arrangement of 4 phosphorus atoms. Another alloptrope is P2- Diphosphorus, which is highly reactive.

Phosphorus has many allotropes the most important ones are white and red . Whieis used bu military against troopes but it isn't allowed no more to the dramatic injuries it causes .As an example the war against Lebanon 2006 when isreel had used it and killed alot of troops or the Gaza war .While the red phosphorous is far more stable, does not react with air, and is essentially nontoxic.
