One of the most important (and useful) physical properties is the melting point. All atoms will 'melt' at some point, even Phosphorus. Ok but what is the melting point of an atom of P?
In the case of Phosphorus the melting point is 44.1°C. Now let's look at other properties and facts about Phosphorus...

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
