The chemical formula KBr is an ionic compound (made from a metal and a non-metal). K represents the metal potassium, and Br represents bromine (a non-metal halogen). The proper chemical name is potassium bromide.

This question contains its own answer: KBrO isa chemical formula (for the salt potassium hypobromite.) The questioner might also have meant potassium bromate, KBrO3. Potassium bromate is much more common than potassium hypobromite. Please see the links.
