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."
