P1:

 

Sarin is a highly toxic synthetic organophosphorus compound. A colourless, odourless liquid, it is used as a chemical weapon due to its extreme potency as a nerve agent. The effects of sarin gas on a person can be life threatening. The sarin attacks the the nervous system by interfering the with the degradation of the neurotransmitter junctions. Death will usually occur as a result of the lack of oxygen due to the inability to control the muscles involved in breathing.
