  2. Bromine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromine

    Bromine is a chemical element; it has symbol Br and atomic number 35. It is a volatile red-brown liquid at room temperature that evaporates readily to form a similarly coloured vapour. Its properties are intermediate between those of chlorine and iodine .

  3. Bromide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromide

    A bromide ion is the negatively charged form (Br −) of the element bromine, a member of the halogens group on the periodic table. Most bromides are colorless. Most bromides are colorless. Bromides have many practical roles, being found in anticonvulsants, flame-retardant materials, and cell stains. [ 3 ]

  4. Formal charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_charge

    Formal charges in ozone and the nitrate anion. In chemistry, a formal charge (F.C. or q*), in the covalent view of chemical bonding, is the hypothetical charge assigned to an atom in a molecule, assuming that electrons in all chemical bonds are shared equally between atoms, regardless of relative electronegativity.

  5. Hydrogen bromide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_bromide

    Hydrogen bromide is the inorganic compound with the formula HBr.It is a hydrogen halide consisting of hydrogen and bromine. A colorless gas, it dissolves in water, forming hydrobromic acid, which is saturated at 68.85% HBr by weight at room temperature.

  6. Bromine number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromine_number

    The bromine number indicates the degree of unsaturation of a sample. The technique can be subject to a variety of problems, whereby the sample consumes more or less bromine than predicted by the equation above. For example, some alkenes dimerize in the presence of bromine. Allylic bromination is another problem. [1]

  7. Bromine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromine_compounds

    Silver bromide (AgBr). Nearly all elements in the periodic table form binary bromides. The exceptions are decidedly in the minority and stem in each case from one of three causes: extreme inertness and reluctance to participate in chemical reactions (the noble gases, with the exception of xenon in the very unstable XeBr 2; extreme nuclear instability hampering chemical investigation before ...

  8. Partial charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_charge

    In atomic physics, a partial charge (or net atomic charge) is a non-integer charge value when measured in elementary charge units. It is represented by the Greek lowercase delta (𝛿), namely 𝛿− or 𝛿+. Partial charges are created due to the asymmetric distribution of electrons in chemical bonds.

  9. Tetrabromoethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrabromoethane

    1,1,2,2-Tetrabromoethane, or simply tetrabromoethane (TBE), is a halogenated hydrocarbon, chemical formula C 2 H 2 Br 4.Although three bromine atoms may bind to one of the carbon atoms creating 1,1,1,2-tetrabromoethane this is not thermodynamically favorable, so in practice tetrabromoethane is equal to 1,1,2,2-tetrabromoethane, where each carbon atom binds two bromine atoms.
