title: The decomposition of hypobromite solutions.
abstract: The stability of 10(-1)-10(-3)N hypobromite solutions, stored in brown or colourless bottles at room temperature, has been investigated. A reaction mechanism of decomposition has been proposed and some practical conclusions have been drawn concerning the optimal method of preparation and the required frequency of control of hypobromite solutions used as an analytical reagent.
