bromine
Reddish-brown halogen liquid
Bromine is a chemical element, one of the halogens, existing at room temperature as a reddish-brown liquid that gives off pungent, toxic fumes.
It occurs naturally in seawater and brine deposits.
Bromine compounds have been used in flame retardants, pesticides, and photographic chemicals.
The element takes its name from a Greek word meaning stench.
