Bromine: Uses Of Bromine: : Used in making fire retardant chemicals :As a disinfectant in water treatment :In flame proofing agents :In dyes : In medicine
Bromine: Uses of Bromine: : Inorganic bromine is used in photography film : It's related compound ethylene dibromine (EDB) was used in making leaded gasoline but was banned because it was found to be a known cause of cancer : In fumigants
Bromine: Where is Bromine found? Bromine’s Abundance: • Bromine is mostly found in wells in Michigan and Arkansas. • Mostly found with Metals. • In 1996 about 1 billion pounds were produced Worldwide. • Obtained from a mollusk (shell fish)
Bromine: Chemical properties, reactivity, oxidation states • Bromine reacts with water to form a mixture of Hydrobromic Acid, HBr, and Hypobromous Acid, HBrO. • Br2 + H2O ==> HBr + HBrO • Bromine liberates Oxygen when the resulting solution is heated or exposed to strong sunlight. • 2 HBrO ==> 2HBr + O2 • Bromine reacts with alkalis in a similar way to Chlorine. Bromine also displaces free elemental Iodine from solution of Iodide Salts, I(-).
