Explanation:

In chemistry, a radical is an atom, molecule, or ion that has an unpaired valence electron.[1][2] With some exceptions, these unpaired electrons make radicals highly chemically reactive. Many radicals spontaneously dimerize. Most organic radicals have short lifetimes.

A notable example of a radical is the hydroxyl radical (HO·), a molecule that has one unpaired electron on the oxygen atom. Two other examples are triplet oxygen and triplet carbene (꞉CH2) which have two unpaired electrons.

Explanation:

• The chemical species that contains a group of atoms which behave as a single unit in different compounds and have unpaired valence electrons is known as a compound radical. The breaking of a single covalent bond to leave an unpaired electron on both the species that are bonded by it lead to the formation of radicals...
