BROMINE WATER
Image result for bromine water In addition, bromine water is commonly used to test for the presence of an alkene which contains a double covalent bond, reacting with the bromine water,
changing its color from an intense yellow to a colorless solution.
Bromine water is also commonly used to check for the presence of an aldehyde group in compounds.
Bromine is used in many areas such as agricultural chemicals, dyestuffs, insecticides,
pharmaceuticals and chemical intermediates. Some uses are being phased out for environmental reasons, but new uses continue to be found. Bromine compounds can be used as flame retardants
alkyne have one or more triple bond between them. when react with bromine water the bromine breaks into bonds
with water molecules and forms bond with alkyne so the alkyne can replace triple bond with double bond .
Bromine water is an oxidizing, intense yellow-to-red mixture containing diatomic bromine (Br2) dissolved in water (H2O).
Bromine water is also commonly used to check for the presence of an aldehyde group in compounds.
