Answer:

Red phosphorus and white phosphorus are two the most common and important allotropes of phosphorus. Red phosphorus is thermally more stable than white phosphorus. It is a white waxy solid. ... It turns yellow in colour in exposure to light, hence, it is also called as yellow phosphorus.Red phosphorus is stable at room temperature, but can be converted to the more reactive white phosphorus by heat, sunlight, or friction.
