The Dead Sea feeds the #AI upply chain. It is a primary source of #bromine used in memory chips, and in the boards and packaging behind #GPUs and #CPUs. Any disruption flows straight through the entire hardware stack.

The Bromine Chokepoint: How Strife in the Middle East Could Halt Production of the World’s Memory Chips

The U.S.-Israeli war with Iran, now in an unstable ceasefire, has exposed a structural failure in the global semiconductor memory supply chain, and it is

Put an ice pack on the back of my (well sealed) elemental bromine sample. Bromine is one of the few elements that is a liquid at room temperature.

In this video, the ice pack forms a cooler area at the back of the glass sphere, causing bromine to condense into small droplets, which then fall down and collect to form small streams of liquid bromine.

My best guess is the bromine collects at the bottom, then revaporizes due to pressure loss within the sphere. #science #chemistry #bromine

This is fun! I have a (sealed) sample of bromine, one of the halogen elements. Bromine is one of the few elements that are liquid at room temperature. After showing it to a friend, I put it in the freezer so more of the vapors would condense (while a liquid, it is volatile), but forgot about it until this morning.

Pulled it out today and it had solidified into these colorful solid bromine crystals! It freezes below −7.2 °C (19 °F).
