Bromine Water

Product Code : SCL-LC-12191

The Bromine Water Reagent is an aqueous bromine solution used in authorised chemistry laboratories for qualitative organic analysis, halogen chemistry and controlled teaching demonstrations. It is intended for trained users in supervised schools, colleges, universities, analytical labs, chemical stockrooms and institutional procurement programs requiring documented reagent supply.

Product Description

Bromine Water from Science Lab Supplies is positioned as a laboratory reagent for controlled institutional use. The supplied product name confirms bromine water as the chemical identity, but concentration, pack size, grade, batch number, SDS and Certificate of Analysis must be verified before final catalogue publication.

Bromine water is typically a reddish-brown aqueous solution of bromine. In teaching and analytical work, it is commonly used where an approved method requires bromine solution for qualitative observation. Because bromine solutions are corrosive, oxidising and volatile, this reagent is not suitable for casual or unsupervised classroom use.

Key Features

• Defined reagent type: aqueous bromine solution for authorised laboratory use.
• Primary use: qualitative organic chemistry and halogen-reaction demonstrations under approved methods.
• Concentration to confirm: saturated, dilute or specified percentage strength must be verified from the final label.
• Pack size to confirm: bottle volume or net quantity must be checked before publication.
• Grade to confirm: do not claim LR, AR, ACS or analytical grade without documentation.
• High-visibility reagent: reddish-brown colour supports clear observation in supervised practicals.
• SDS-led handling: requires ventilation, PPE, compatible storage and controlled disposal.

How to Use the Bromine Water

1. Verify the label, concentration, batch number, expiry date and SDS before use.
2. Use only in a ventilated laboratory area or fume hood as required by the SDS.
3. Wear chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, lab coat and any additional PPE specified.
4. Dispense only the minimum required volume using compatible glassware or a suitable dropper.
5. Add bromine water only as directed by the approved practical method.
6. Avoid inhaling vapour, mist or spray, and avoid skin or eye contact.
7. Close the bottle immediately after use and return it to restricted storage.
8. Collect residues as bromine-containing laboratory waste according to local rules.

Safety note: Bromine Water Reagent is corrosive and oxidising. Do not use it for unauthorised demonstrations, food, medical, cosmetic, agricultural, pool-treatment or household purposes.

Care & Maintenance

• Store tightly closed in a clearly labelled, compatible container.
• Keep away from heat, sunlight, reducing agents, ammonia, combustible materials and incompatible metals.
• Use secondary containment and prevent release to drains.
• Do not use if the bottle is leaking, unlabelled, discoloured unexpectedly, expired or contaminated.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Bromine Water Reagent used for?

Bromine Water Reagent is used in authorised chemistry laboratories for qualitative organic chemistry tests, halogen-reaction observations and controlled teaching procedures.

What is bromine water made of?

Bromine water is an aqueous solution of bromine, commonly represented as Br₂ in water. The exact concentration must be confirmed from the final product label and SDS.

What is the CAS number of bromine water?

The bromine component is commonly associated with CAS 7726-95-6. Confirm the final CAS and mixture classification from the supplied SDS.

Is bromine water hazardous?

Yes. Bromine water should be handled as a corrosive, oxidising laboratory reagent that may irritate or damage eyes, skin and the respiratory tract.

What pack size is available?

The pack size is not confirmed. Add bottle volume or net quantity only after checking the final Science Lab Supplies product specification.

Can bromine water be used in schools?

Only authorised school or college laboratories with trained supervision, ventilation, PPE, SDS access and waste controls should handle bromine water.
