Phosgene, Phosphorus and Napalm

The CNN report of a gas that burned the skin of the students in Northern Syria I was trying to find because they weren't sure what it was. Some thought it might be something similar to napalm the way it burned the skin of the students and their backs arms legs and some of their faces. Luckily, most closed their eyes so it didn't burn their eyes except for those who died from it.

I found out first that it wasn't Phosgene. Phosgene is related to pesticides and smells like newly mown hay or corn and is a pleasant odor so it is for destroying people's lungs and more people died from this in World War I than any other chemical weapon.

Phosphorus: White phosphorus is a colorless, white or yellow waxy solid with a garlic like odor. It does not occur naturally but is manufactured from Phosphate rocks. White phosphorus reacts rapidly with oxygen, easily catching fire at 10 to 15 degrees above room temperature. White phosphorus is used by military in various kinds of ammunition, and to produce smoke for concealing troop movements and identifying targets.

Affected organ systems: Dermal(skin), ocular(eyes) reproductive(producing children), respiratory(from the nose and lungs) But no cancer affects like Mustard gas.

So, so far both Phosphorus and napalm or something like it are the most likely candidates for what struck the school in Northern Syria Recently that I know of.

All information I got from  the CDC as a source.
