Yeah, sodium bromide is used as a bath salt for your feet. It's also used to disenfect spas and pools for those people who don't like the chlorine.

Bromine can be kept in a sealed vial for an element collection, or you could react it with some aluminum foil and then RUN far away. You could mix it with some alkali metals, and again, run VERY far away. You could add it to some unsaturated fats and watch the color of the bromine dissapear. You could use it to form iodine from iodide ions. You could mix it with lye and form chlorine free bleach. There's a lot of stuff that you can do with bromine. Just don't ingest/inhale it. Or get any on your skin.

The boiling point of Br is about 59*C, so how come it is normally seen as a gas? Shouldn't it be a liquid?

 

I suppose it would be easy to liquify with some ice though.

Yeah. Bromine VERY easily vaporizes. If you have enough of it, it will remain as a liquid. (I have a few mL of it). But it will also evaporate at a high rate of speed, and since the gas is so deeply colored and dense it is quite easy to see.
