HalogenSolution

Bromine Water Extra Pure is a highly purified aqueous solution of bromine, commonly used in laboratory settings for qualitative analysis, halogenation reactions, and redox studies. It acts as a powerful oxidizing and electrophilic brominating agent, making it ideal for detecting unsaturation in organic compounds—such as alkenes and alkynes—through decolorization tests. In inorganic chemistry, it is utilized for oxidation of specific ions and elements in solution. The extra pure grade ensures low contamination and consistent bromine concentration, crucial for reproducible analytical results. It should be stored in amber, airtight containers in a cool, well-ventilated area, and handled with proper protective equipment due to its corrosive and volatile nature.
