It is found to be more stable than white phosphorus (another naturally occurring phosphorus allotrope). Red phosphorus is characterized by its deep red color and powdery texture.

Red phosphorus formula: P4 (chain)

Melting point: 860K

Density: 2.34 grams per cubic centimeter

  • Red phosphorus is odorless and has a deep red color.
  • It is not poisonous to humans, in contrast to the white phosphorus allotrope.
  • Upon heating to temperatures above 300oC, red phosphorus undergoes crystallization.
  • It can also assume a cubic structure in its crystal lattice.
