Symproportionation versus Disproportionation in Bromine Redox Systems

• The disproportionation and symproportionation of bromine in different media is presented.
• All the redox systems are elaborated according to the principles of the generalized approach to electrolytic redox systems (GATES/GEB).
• All physicochemical knowledge is involved in the algorithm applied for this purpose.
• The graphical representation of the systems is the basis of gaining the detailed physicochemical knowledge on the systems in question.

The paper refers to dynamic (titration) redox systems where symproportionation or disproportionation of bromine species occur. The related systems are modeled according to principles assumed in the Generalized Approach to Electrolytic Redox Systems (GATES), with Generalized Electron Balance (GEB) concept involved in the GATES/GEB software. The results obtained from calculations made with use of iterative computer programs prepared according to MATLAB computational software, are presented graphically, as 2D and 3D graphs.
