Best Answer

Ethanol and NaBr. The delta negative OH dissociates from Sodium creating an +Na ion. The Bromine withdraws the electron density towards itself leaving the Carbon delta +. This means that the -OH will attack the +C removing -Br.

What is the question?

Bromine and iodine are halogens, bromine naturally a liquid and iodine naturally a solid. Sodium iodide is the sodium salt of iodine. The latter is often used in Photography, in forming silver iodide photographic papers, but bromine is not - though silver bromide is.

Sodium iodide is also used to treat hyperthyroidism and cancer of the thyroid gland. Bromine liquid burns holes in you while iodine tincture kills bacteria in wounds - I remember it well!

If you mean bromine iodide there is no such thing!

If you are seeking the balance equation for the two it is:

2NaI+Br2-->2NaBr+I2

Bromine can replace the iodine because it has a higher electronegativity than iodine (2.96 Vs 2.66 on Linus Pauling's scale). It cannot be done the other way round: 2NaBr +I2 --> 2NaI = Br2 is impossible because of this.

Chlorine plus Sodium bromide yields Sodium chloride plus Bromine

Cl2 + 2NaBr ----> 2NaCl + Br2 (Bromine is a diatomic)
