  • Potassium Bromide and Fluorine Reaction: KF and Br₂ Formation
    Potassium bromide (KBr) and fluorine (F₂) react to form potassium fluoride (KF) and bromine (Br₂). This is a single displacement reaction where the more reactive fluorine displaces the bromide from the potassium bromide.

    Here's the balanced chemical equation:

    2 KBr + F₂ → 2 KF + Br₂

    Important Note: This reaction is highly exothermic and can be dangerous. It should only be performed by trained professionals in a controlled environment.
