Name:
Name of early origins from the Greek αρσενικόν ("arsenikon"), "masculine", alluding to its potent properties. The Oxford English Dictionary lists the first record of the word "arsenic" in a 1310 book concerning orpiment de iiij libris de orpiment venditis, of unknown authorship.
A metallic, steel-gray to dark-gray, brittle element. Oxidises slowly in air and is then covered with a thin crust of tiny arsenolite crystals.
Used in bronzing, pyrotechny, insecticides, and poisons, and as a doping agent in transistors. Gallium arsenide is used as a laser material to convert electricity directly into coherent light. Arsenic and its compounds are poisonous.

Fluorescence of ArsenicHide

Not fluorescent in UV

Other InformationHide

Magnetism:
Non-Magnetic
Health Risks:
Safety precautions: Wash hands after handling. Avoid generating and inhaling dust when handling, breaking, grinding or cutting. Never lick or ingest. Oral lethal dosis ld50 between 100 and 300mg/kg, so it is not much of a threat compared to some other arsenic compounds.
