Sample of red phosphorus being ignited using a blowtorch. Phosphorus is a reactive element that is only ever found in compounds in nature, but exists as several distinct allotropes as an element. Red phosphorus is formed by heating the extremely reactive white phosphorus, which ignites in air and glows in the dark. Red phosphorus burns at around 300 degrees Celsius. | |
