8. History Of Bromine
Bromine was discovered by two scientists working independently. In the Autumn of 1825, student K. Lowig took a bottle of a reddish liquid with an unpleasant smell to the Laboratory of Medicine and Chemistry of Prof. L. Gemlin, at the University of Heidelberg. Lowig told Gemlin that the liquid, of mineral origin, resulted from the treatment with gaseous Chlorine, which explains the red color. The substance responsible for that red color was extracted with the help of ether, giving origin to a pink liquid later known as bromine.

10. Other Facts About Bromine
Bromine is a name derived from the Greek word ‘Bromos’, which means stench.
Bromine is extracted from brine pools that are found in the United States of America and Israel, making it hardly surprising that these two countries specialize in the production of Bromine.
