Isakhiwo se-cubic esimhlophe esicwebezelayo esiphakathi kobuso, sithambile, siqinile ngemuva kwegolide kuphela, singumqhubi omuhle kakhulu wokushisa nogesi; asisabeli ngamanzi nomoya-mpilo womoya, futhi siphenduka sibe mnyama uma sichayeka ku-ozone, i-hydrogen sulfide kanye ne-sulfur; Asisebenzi kuma-asidi amaningi futhi singancibilika ngokushesha ku-nitric acid encibilikisiwe kanye ne-hot concentrated sulfuric acid. I-Hydrochloric acid ingagqwala ubuso futhi incibilike ku-alkali hydroxide encibilikisiwe, i-peroxide alkali kanye ne-alkali cyanide emoyeni noma lapho kukhona umoya-mpilo; Usawoti wesiliva omningi uzwela ekukhanyeni futhi awuncibiliki kuma-asidi amaningi.
