No, atropine is not an antidote for cyanide poisoning. The primary antidotes for cyanide include hydroxocobalamin and sodium thiosulfate. Atropine is an anticholinergic medication used to treat bradycardia and certain types of poisoning, but it does not counteract the effects of cyanide.
Hydrogen cyanide is commonly known as prussic acid.
Cyanide smells of almonds.
The correct name (after IUPAC rules) is just hydrogen cyanide.
Several antidotes are: hydroxocobalamin, sodium thiosulfate, sodium nitrite etc.

Hydrogen cyanide is commonly known as prussic acid.
The cyanide antidote is nitrite, specifically amyl nitrite or sodium nitrite, which helps to convert hemoglobin to methemoglobin, allowing it to bind cyanide. 2-PAM chloride (pralidoxime) is an antidote for organophosphate poisoning. Atropine is used to treat certain types of poisoning or overdose, but not specifically for cyanide poisoning.
