Paʻa ia i ka mahana maʻamau, a ʻā i ka lapalapa ʻulaʻula ʻulaʻula i ka wā i wela ai, a hoʻohua mai ka melemele a ʻeleʻele bismuth oxide.
Hoʻonui ka nui o ka metala i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia ma hope o ka hoʻopili ʻia ʻana.
Hōʻalo i ka hoʻopili ʻana me nā oxides, halogens, acids, a me nā pūhui interhalogen.
ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻoheheʻe ʻia i loko o ka waika hydrochloric inā ʻaʻohe ea, a hiki ke hoʻoheheʻe mālie ʻia ke komo ʻia ka ea.
Hoʻonui ka leo mai ka wai a paʻa, a ʻo ka hoʻonui ʻana he 3.3%.
He palupalu a maʻalahi hoʻi ka ʻūhā ʻana, a maikaʻi ʻole ka uila a me ka wela.
Hiki iā ia ke hana me ka bromine a me ka iodine ke wela.
Ma ka lumi wela, ʻaʻole pane ka bismuth me ka oxygen a i ʻole ka wai, a hiki ke puhi e hana i ka bismuth trioxide ke hoʻomehana ʻia ma luna o ka helu heheʻe.
ʻO Bismuth selenide a me telluride nā waiwai semiconducting.
