Fluobromide

/ˌfluːəˈbrɒmaɪd/ noun

Definition

A compound containing both fluorine and bromine combined with another element.

Etymology

From fluor- + bromide (a bromine compound). This term reflects combinatorial chemistry where multiple halogens are used together for specific properties.

Kelly Says

Fluobromides are interesting because fluorine and bromine are neighboring halogens, but mixing them creates compounds with completely different reactivity than either element alone.
