=Where was it found:=

·
=History:=

Two sciencetists discovered bromine. They were Antone Ballard and Carl Jacob Lowig in 1826. They found bromine chemicals in the ashes of sea wood.
=Physical Characteristics:= ====· Bromine is a dense, mobile, and slightly transparent reddish brown liquid. It is a non-metal. Bromine is the only non-metallic element that is a liquid at room temperature. The color of bromine is reddish brown and its melting point is -72 Celsius and its boiling point is 58.8 degrees Celsius, which is 138 degrees Celsius. It is extracted from seawater; it’s a pungent- smelling, red – brown volatile liquid. It is a poor conductor of electricity and heat and is reactive with other elements. Bromine is dull and brittle. When solid non-metals are dull, meaning not shiny, and brittle meaning not malleable or ductile. Non-metals usually have lower densities than metals.====

·
=Chemical characteristics:= ====· Atoms of nonmetals usually gain or share electrons with other atoms. Bromine is a halogen, and is less reactive than chlorine and more reactive than iodon. Bromine is a poisonous liquid that burns skin. Non-metals are reactive so they readily form compounds.====

=Sub-Atomic particles:=

**Uses:**
====· Bromine is used by doctors and partly is made from salt and it’s used to suppress mental activity and Bromine is used to make fuels and additives, insecticides, fire extinguishers and pharmaceuticals. Bromine is made from crushed seashells, emperors and members of imperial family.====
