Use - Analytical reagent for tin. Avoid sources of heat including fire. Benzenearsonic acid will emit very toxic fumes of arsenic when heated to decomposition. Other Names - Phenyl arsenic acid, phenylarsonic acid. Effects usually appear within 30 minutes of exposure but may be delayed for several hours.
Caution is advised.
Dehydration, intense thirst, difficulty swallowing, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, and diarrhea are among the first signs and symptoms noticed following acute benzenearsonic acid exposure. Exposure to airborne dust is generally accompanied by irritation of exposed skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Pulmonary edema may also occur. Garlic odor of breath and feces may be noted. Altered mental status, seizures, and delirium are further complications of benzenearsonic acid exposure.
