Sure is a lot on toxicity, alright already. You need only mention it in two sections (intro and safety).
How is this stuff made? What is its structure?
I dont think that it decomposes to arsine upon treatment with acid. Maybe upon addition of a reductant such as I- or Zn.
What is "it", by the way? As2O3 or As(OH)3?
Insert links to corresponding phosphorus cmpd? Roam around wiki-land and find something more chemical than water to link to.
Good source: Greenwood and Earnshaw's "Chemistry of the Elements"
Why is it notated as As(OH)3? Isn't that misleading? I suggest H3AsO3 (aq)
