3, is a bromine-based oxoanion. A bromate is a chemical compound that contains this ion. Examples of bromates include sodium bromate (NaBrO 3) and potassium bromate (KBrO 3). Bromates are formed many different ways in municipal drinking water. The most common is the reaction of ozone and bromide: Br − + O 3 → BrO − 3
Bromism is the syndrome which results from the long-term consumption of bromine, usually through bromine-based sedatives such as potassium bromide and lithium bromide. Bromism was once a very common disorder, being responsible for 5 to 10% of psychiatric hospital admissions, but is now uncommon since bromide was withdrawn from clinical use in ...
Such a triglyceride has a high iodine value (approx. 119). Below, the reaction product after the addition of four equivalents of iodine or bromine to the four C=C double bonds of the unsaturated fatty acid residues. The determination of iodine value is a particular example of iodometry. A solution of iodine I 2 is yellow/brown in color.
Seafood and deep sea plants generally have higher levels than land-derived foods. Bromargyrite—natural, crystalline silver bromide—is the most common bromide mineral known but is still very rare. In addition to silver, bromine is also in minerals combined with mercury and copper. [5]
Bond energies to bromine tend to be lower than those to chlorine but higher than those to iodine, and bromine is a weaker oxidising agent than chlorine but a stronger one than iodine. This can be seen from the standard electrode potentials of the X 2 /X − couples (F, +2.866 V; Cl, +1.395 V; Br, +1.087 V; I, +0.615 V; At, approximately +0.3 V).
Bromine is deeply colored but R 2 C(Br)−C(Br)R 2 is not. Thus, the consumption of bromine can often be gauged visually. Alternatively and more quantitatively, the bromine consumed by a sample can be determined by iodometry. [1] The bromine number indicates the degree of unsaturation of a sample. The technique can be subject to a variety of ...
Typically, dementia is associated with classic symptoms like confusion and memory loss. But new research finds that there could be a less obvious risk factor out there: your cholesterol levels ...
Chemical mechanism of the bromine explosion. The blue area at the bottom represents the condensed phase (liquid brine or ice surface). Tropospheric ozone depletion events are phenomena that reduce the concentration of ozone in the earth's troposphere.
