Mercury is a metal, and although it's unique and all, bromine being a non mental, and halogen on top of it, it's very incredible how it exists in liquid state at normal temperatures. If you study a bit about halogens you'll know why it's so unique. Go through the book called CONSISE INORGANIC CHEMISTRY by JD LEE on the chapter halogen and have a read about bromine! Good luck!

Bromine has always been one of my favorite elements. I actually like it's unique odor and I have used it countless times in the lab. I actually made some in 6th grade! I generated chlorine by heating salt (NaCl), with NaHSO4 and MnO2 then blowing it into a test tube filled with NaBr solution; all of these were available in chemistry sets in the '60's and '70's. The solution turned red and after time a dark red glob of bromine settled to the bottom. Way cool!

[@-Kerstin]

the US allows it up to 75 ppm and manufacturers must list the ingredient on food labels. However, the US officially urges bakers not to use potassium bromate; in California, food containing potassium is required to have a warning label.

[@zgcolorforce214]

@Med dy That's just some conspiracy. Bromate (BrO3-) has nothing to do with "removing iodine". Potassium bromate is used to enhance to elasticity and rise of bread dough. Bromates are toxic though. Iodine in small amounts is used by the body to make thyroid hormones. But just like all the other halogens, iodine is toxic in pure form. Edit: If you're deficient on iodine, it can smart to eat lean fish, dairy products, crustaceans and shellfish.

[@zgcolorforce214]

@Med dy I was talking about bromate (BrO3-), not bromide (Br-). And iodine vapour is infact toxic (I2 (g)). The halogens is more dangerous in elemental form, than in ions and salts. Chlorine (Cl2) is very toxic, but chloride (Cl-) is essential for life. Even though chlorine is toxic, the risks of chlorine in water is smaller than bacteria and pests in the water. The most dangerous thing with fluoride is not its ability to replace iodine. Fluoride can form insoluable salts with calcium and deplete the body of calcium in the blood and/or bones. This is the reason hydrofluoric acid (HF) is so toxic.

[@NDarinzo]

@Med dy it would be great if you added sources to all of your claims and did people the favor of breaking down the results into the bottom line for most medical papers because i'm sure you know most nerds can't even do that and i'm sure you would be glad to. thanks in advance

I was at school during a time when Bromine experiments were almost allowed. "Almost," I hear you ask. Yes, it was banned but at the time the ban was recent.

Also, potassium bromide was used in the Romanian army in tea, as an anaphrodisiac, basically killing the sexual lust (and reportedly in many other armies). During my military service, one of us asked bluntly from the kitchen staff if they still use bromide, as the guys can't get an erection. As it turned out, it was "no longer used, but was pre '89" out of budgetary considerations, and the physiological effect the guys were - or better, not - experiencing, was basically due to the fresh experience of living among men for the last two months :)))

The Dead Sea and Utah are not the only producers of Bromine. The Smackover Lime formation in Southern Arkansas is a large producer of Bromine as well, with concentrations of up to 2500 PPM. The brine there comes up hot, so not a lot of heat is needed to separate the bromine from the brine. Most of it is sent to Texas, where it is processed into flame retardant.

8:43 I know nearly nothing about chemicals but still do I have to tell you that a liquid's boiling point do not change under different pressures. I.e. water boils at 100 deg C no matter if in space or under extreme pressure. What you are seeing is air that do more easy escape from the liquid because the lower surrounding pressure. Each atom is surrounded by 100% vacuum and do therefore not "feel" any difference in the surrounding pressure. :-)

@@asadullahkhan1004 Thank you for your comment! But this is a common misconception. Remember that each atom is surrounded by 100% vacuum and do therefore not "feel" the surrounding lesser or higher vacuum. What you are talking about is the pressure when air molecules are being let free. Try to place some water in a vacuum in normal 20 C, and you'll see the air start bobbling out while the water is not boiling, even the water looks like it's boiling. :-)

[@asadullahkhan1004]

@@friedmule5403 yes! You might be right here although partially in my opinion I got your point through second comment however in my opinion you are missing a points here kindly note following points that i say they are pinnacle of my understanding on subject First is vapour pressure the during liquid state of most substance weaker bonded atoms after absorbing even minute of energy evaporate into gas under closed container they condense for better explaining and since you took water example I will continue with it.see why water evaporate at any place above its freezing temperature is because of difference in energy within molecule that in closed container forms equilibrium hence rate of evaporation equips rate of condensation so by reference of boiling and freezing point depression law solute that states that substance boils or freezes when its vapor pressure equal to that states due to this reason if you add solute(non volatile) it might depress freezing and evaluate boiling point meaning substance boils and freezes at lower temperature (MAKE IT POINT 1) i.e vapour pressure at equilibrium Secondly according to Lechattlier principle if a change is introduced in an equilibrium it will move in a way to counter the change (check production of NH3 habers product through it).now this law states change in pressure effect on equilibrium(POINT2) you will understand where I am getting at . But if you don't then I will explain here what I think about it :- Through reference to above laws I deduced that since bromine or any substance is in equilibrium any change in pressure for instances vacuuming will leas to fall in pressure this will lead to shift of equilibrium by it molecule will evaporate quicker in a manner that we can also call boiling so overall I state that giving under consideration your views no not only gas inside liquid at time moves out but liquid also see conversation of state at low pressure. Kindly correct me if you find any mistake and looking forward for your reply and view on this topic Will love to know your opinion regarding this matter.

[@friedmule5403]

@@asadullahkhan1004 Thank you for your fantastic comment!! I can in no way match your quality of comment, but I think we both are agreeing. The "problem" is maybe when we call it boiling or not, since water evaporates, even far below zero, and the evaporation goes up at lower temperature, due to the movement of air and its rapid movement, heating the water by some minute degree. Water under high pressure do not evaporate, even it may be under 300 C, but is it then boiling?
