Information About

Halide




are used in High-intensity Discharge Lamp s called Metal Halide Lamp s, such as those used in modern Street Light s. These are more Energy - Efficient than Mercury-vapor Lamp s, and have much better Colour Rendition than Orange High-pressure Sodium Lamps . Metal halide lamps are also commonly used in greenhouses or in rainy climates to supplement natural sunlight.

Alkyl Halide s are organic compounds of the type R-X, containing an Alkyl group R Covalent ly bonded to a halogen X.

A halide ion is a halogen atom bearing a negative ion, such as Fluoride ion (F-) or Chloride ion (Cl-). Such ions are present in all Ionic halide salts.

Pseudohalides resemble halides in their charge and reactivity; common examples are NNN-, CNO-, CN-, etc.
