Phosphorus and allotropes

    In this thread I am suggesting the new element - phosphorus. Not only this but its allotropes. Phosphorus is useful as an explosive, conductive and others. The allotropes include:

    Diphosphorus (can be missed out if useless)

    White phosphorus (highly flammable and explosive)-glows.

    Red phosphorus (flammable if under pressure and heat)

    Voilet phosphorus (can be missed out if useless)

    Black phosphorus (semiconductor)-made by heating white phosphorus with mercury catalyst.

     

    Tell me what you guys think :P I think it's a good idea.

     

    I know this has been suggested before but...just...just yeah.

    It has similar properties to graphite and yes I will research kinda...

     

    It's a conductor, flaky, and is thermodynamically stable at room temperature and pressure.

    Meh. I didn't think this was working anyway and I felt kind of stupid when I searched 'phosphorus' and found alot of these suggestion threads about the same thing...and here's another one.
