Bromodichloromethane is a trihalomethane with formula C H Br Cl 2.It is a colorless, nonflammable liquid which will dissolve in water, or evaporate in air. [1] Most of the chemical is produced through the chlorine disinfection process, [1] and as a result it can occur in municipally-treated drinking water. [2]
Preferred IUPAC name. Dibromo(chloro)methane. Other names Dibromochloromethane; Chlorodibromomethane [citation needed] Monochlorodibromomethane [citation needed]
Dibromomethane is prepared commercially from dichloromethane via bromochloromethane: . 6 CH 2 Cl 2 + 3 Br 2 + 2 Al → 6 CH 2 BrCl + 2 AlCl 3 CH 2 Cl 2 + HBr → CH 2 BrCl + HCl. The latter route requires aluminium trichloride as a catalyst. [3]
Bromochloromethane or methylene bromochloride and Halon 1011 is a mixed halomethane.It is a heavy low-viscosity liquid with refractive index 1.4808.. Halon 1011 was invented for use in fire extinguishers in Germany during the mid-1940s, in an attempt to create a less toxic, more effective alternative to carbon tetrachloride.
In people with pre-existing heart problems, exposure to DCM can cause abnormal heart rhythms and/or heart attacks, sometimes without any other symptoms of overexposure. [28] People with existing liver , nervous system , or skin problems may worsen after exposure to methylene chloride.
The average red blood cell contains 250 million hemoglobin molecules. [7] Hemoglobin contains a globin protein unit with four prosthetic heme groups (hence the name heme-o-globin); each heme is capable of reversibly binding with one gaseous molecule (oxygen, carbon monoxide, cyanide, etc.), [8] therefore a typical red blood cell may carry up to one billion gas molecules.
The basics: Eat normally every other day and stay under 500 calories every other day. Positives: Most people will find this pattern easier than fasting for two days in a row. How to make ...
A blood substitute (also called artificial blood or blood surrogate) is a substance used to mimic and fulfill some functions of biological blood. It aims to provide an alternative to blood transfusion , which is transferring blood or blood-based products from one person into another.
