Bromine is a corrosive brown liquid that has a tendency to escape from any container. Here you can see what bromine does when it encounters aluminum foil.

    I dripped concentrated sulfuric acid onto a mix of potassium permanganate and Sodium bromide.

  • @mikekat93 Ahhhhhhhhhhhh thanks for clearing this up for me (:

  • @Stickmanv2 It isn't burning it. When bromine encounters ALuminum. Aluminum Tri-bromide is formed. THis reaction is highly exothermic, producing a lot of energy in the forms of heat and light.

  • awesome how does one make bromine i've heard by bubbling chlorine through a bromine salt solution

  • So is this an anaerobic "flame"?

  • Woah O.O IS the bormine burning the alumium
