A chemical compound containing both chlorine and bromine atoms bonded together or to another element.
From chloro- (chlorine) + bromide (bromine compound). Both halogens (chemically similar elements in the same group) combine in names to show mixed halogen compounds.
Chlorobromides appear in photographic emulsions and specialized chemical reactions where the slightly different chemical personalities of chlorine and bromine work together—it's like having two similar but distinct spices in one recipe!
