Br is an anion. It is called bromide and is the ion form of the element bromine.

Anion. An anion is formed when a neutral atom or molecule gains one or more electrons, resulting in a negative charge due to an excess of electrons compared to protons.
When chlorine gains an electron , it forms an anion. It is represented as Cl-
Phosphorus has 5 valence electron. It forms anion by gaining 3 electrons.
Br is an anion. It is called bromide and is the ion form of the element bromine.

Iron forms a cation.
Iodine forms the iodide ion. It has a charge of negative 1 (-1)
Oxygen is an element. It normally forms anions.
Selenium is an non-metal element that can exist in various oxidation states, including as a cation (Se^2+) or an anion (Se^2-, Se^4-, etc.). The oxidation state of selenium determines whether it acts as a cation or anion in a given compound.
Bismuth typically forms cations, such as Bi3+. An anion would involve gaining electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, which is not a common behavior for bismuth.
Oxygen itself is not an anion, as it is a neutral atom when not ionized. However, when oxygen gains two electrons, it forms the oxide ion O2-, which is an anion.
It is neither acidic, nor basic. It even isn't an anion: element Chlorine is Cl2.
anion. bromine is a non metal which gains an electron making it negative.
When a metal hydroxide reacts with an acid, it forms water and a salt. The metal from the hydroxide forms the cation of the salt, while the anion from the acid forms the anion of the salt. This reaction is known as neutralization.
Iron can exist as both an anion and a cation, depending on its oxidation state. In its most common forms, iron is a cation with a positive charge.
