Bromine and mercury are the only elements that are liquid at room temperature and pressure..

Bromine decolorization is used as a simple qualitative test for unsaturation. Bromine is a dark red-brown liquid, but alkenes and dibromoalkanes are colorless. When an alkene is combined with bromine, a dibromoalkanes is formed, and red-brown bromine quickly decolorizes.

Fun Fact! Sourced from marine molluscs, bromine is a major component in an ancient purple dye used in the dye industry of Ancient Rome.
