About Arsenic

Known since antiquity and historically notorious as a poison, arsenic is a metallic-grey metalloid of atomic number 33 and atomic mass 74.922. It is a brittle solid with a density of 5.73 g/cm³. Five valence electrons ([Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p3) give an electronegativity of 2.18 and a first ionization energy of 947 kJ/mol. Albertus Magnus is credited with describing the element around 1250. Despite its toxicity, arsenic has practical uses in semiconductors and, historically, in wood preservatives. It sits in group 15, period 4, sharing that group with nitrogen and phosphorus.
