halides

• “The halides are a group of minerals whose principle chemical constituents are fluorine, chlorine, iodine, and bromine.”

  Composition of rocks

• “A few minutes later, the first row of metal halides flickered to life.”

  Simon & Schuster: Miracles, Inc.

• “Grignard had discovered that organic halides can form compounds with magnesium.”

  The Nobel Prize in Chemistry: The Development of Modern Chemistry

• “High-purity uranium can be prepared by the thermal decomposition of uranium halides on a hot filament.”

  Uranium

• “Uranium can be prepared by reducing uranium halides with alkali or alkaline earth metals or by reducing uranium oxides by calcium, aluminum, or carbon at high temperatures.”

  Uranium

• “The team produced a version of the mineral in which silver is replaced by lithium, germanium by phosphorus, and some of the sulphur atoms by halides (chloride, bromide or iodide), resulting in argyrodite-like structures.”

  Batteries that never needs recharging

• “Metal halides have the added advantage of producing a warm, natural light.”

  Simon & Schuster: WHY is the FOUL POLE FAIR?

• “Superacid catalysts developed at the Institute permit oxidative condensation of methane to higher hydrocarbons, as well as the selective electrophilic conversion of methane to its mono-substituted derivatives such as methyl halides and methyl alcohol.”
