Answer:
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 (:CH. ) which have two unpaired electrons. Radicals may be generated in a number of ways, but typical methods involve redox reactions.
