Answer 2

Answer:

The answer for the particular statement the free-radicals are negatively charged is false.

Explanation:

• The free radicals are formed when the weak bond break and the electrons are left unpaired.
• This free radicals forms the group of oxidized species which is reactive in nature.
• The free radicals are unpaired hence the electron is left alone in the valence band and hence the free radicals can possess negative charge or positive charge or it can possess no charge also.
• The charge of the free radicals depends upon the proton-electron theory. This charge cannot be depending factor of consideration.
