Other InformationHide

Thermal Behaviour:

Sublimates when heated in a closed tube, condensing in the upper (cooler) part of the tube in minute octahedrons.

Notes:

Slightly soluble in hot water.

Health Risks:

A highly toxic substance. Contains arsenic in a highly soluble form.

Avoid handling unless absolutely necessary. Wear protective gloves and wash them thoroughly after handling.

Avoid inhaling dust when handling.

Never lick or ingest.
