Bromine does not generally form double bonds, but there are rare cases in which it does. Bromine double bonds are highly unstable, so answer no for anything lower than an organic chemistry class.

Are ionic bonds important in Br2?
Bromine gas, Br2, has covalent bonds. However, the element bromine does form ionic bonds with other substances (sodium bromide, etc.).
Does BrO3 have a double bond between the bromine and oxygen?
yes it does. It actually has two double bonds.
Why the unsaturated compound decolourises with bromine?
bromine water is oxidising in nature. it removes the double bonds and attaches itself to the alkene.
When potassium and bromine atoms form chemical bonds-what is produced?
Potassium and bromine form the ionic compound potassium bromide with the chemical formula KBr.
Why can Florine form double or triple bonds?
Fluorine does not form double or triple bonds.
Why ethanol cannot react with bromine water?
The unsaturated compounds having double or triple bonds under go the addition reactions with Bromine water, ethanol does not have the double or triple bonds

Why does bromine water fade when testing for saturation?
Bromine reacts with the double / triple bonds giving typically a colourless compound. the bromine water therefore fades as the bromine reacts.
When potassium and bromine atoms form chemical bonds-what is produced?
Potassium and bromine form the ionic compound potassium bromide with the chemical formula KBr.
Why can Florine form double or triple bonds?
Fluorine does not form double or triple bonds.
What happens if you mix cooking oil with bromine water?
The bromine water turns from orange to colourless, as it is breaking the double bonds. When the oil becomes saturated, any more bromine water that is added will not turn colourless.
Is bromine and ionic or covalent bond?
There is no electro negativity difference.The bond is covalent.
When potassium and bromine atoms form chemical bonds what is produced?
Potassium and bromine form the ionic compound potassium bromide with the chemical formula KBr.
What is the maximum number of double bonds the carbon atom can form?
Carbon forms a maxiumum of four bonds, which can be in the form of two double bonds.
What is bromine and carbon tetrachloride?
Bromine in carbon tetrachloride is a brown-colored solution and used as a chemical test. When drops of bromine/carbon tetrachloride are added to a solution containing an unknown compound and the brown-colored bromine solution disappears, that means that the unknown compound contains carbon-carbon double bonds (since it absorbed the bromine solution). On the other hand, if the brown-colored bromine solution doesn't disappear then it means that no carbon double bonds are present. This is called a "Bromine Test."
