Phosphorus in Minecraft

This Minecraft tutorial explains all about the element block called Phosphorus with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, Phosphorus is a chemical element block that has a symbol of P and an atomic number of 15. It is the 15th element in the Periodic Table of Elements. Phosphorus is available in the Chemistry Update for Minecraft Education Edition and has also been added to Minecraft Pocket Edition, Windows 10, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch (if you enable the Education Edition chemistry features in your world).

Let's learn about Phosphorus in Minecraft.

TIP: To enable the Education Edition chemistry features in Minecraft PE, Windows 10, Xbox One or Nintendo Switch, toggle the Education Edition option in your world settings. Because Education gameplay may break your world, the game will make a copy of your world starting with [EDU]. This is the world that will contain the new Chemistry "features".
