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.
As compared to white phosphorus, it is not so dangerous, as it is not poisonous and it does ignite spontaneously in air, if temperature is below 260 ºC. So, it is relatively stable and less reactive than white phosphorus.
Phosphorus is stable in its common forms, such as white phosphorus and red phosphorus. However, there are unstable isotopes of phosphorus that are radioactive and undergo decay.
No, phosphorus is classified as a Non-Metal.
phosphorus tribromide.
No, phosphorus is a non-metallic element. It is typically found in nature in several different forms, including white phosphorus, red phosphorus, black phosphorus, and violet phosphorus.
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.
White phosphorus is very dangerous and not just because it is poisonous. Red phosphorus is considered less poisonous.
As compared to white phosphorus, it is not so dangerous, as it is not poisonous and it does ignite spontaneously in air, if temperature is below 260 ºC. So, it is relatively stable and less reactive than white phosphorus.
Yes but in certain casses only.
what are the danerous or harmful drugs
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.
HIV is harmful and dangerous.
"More harmful" and "most harmful." We would not use the -er and -est suffixes on the -ful which is already a suffix.
It is not harmful but it dangerous.
Noxious
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.
For harmful, damaging, injurious, detrimental, negative, hurtful, destructive. For dangerous, hazardous, perilous, unpredictable, vulnerable, treacherous
