how fine is the charcoal? can I make facial mask with it? Will I see all particles of carbon?

Not very fine, like little rice sized chunks. I grind mine into a powder using a mortar and pestle which gets a little dusty. Its an inexpensive way to purchase this so a little extra prep was fine with me. This would make one scatter and messy face mask. I use it to brush my teeth and make mascara.

does this contain phosphates?

Thank you for your question, Jimmy! No, it does not contain phosphates at all.

How often would it need to be replaced in a cannister filter?

I clean my tank weekly, but replace the carbon once a month, keeps tank clear

How much do i use for 10 gal tank?

You should have a reservoir that you can enter this into and then proceed to filter your water.
