he radical left behind after a molecule loses its proton is called the acid radical. For instance, let's take HCl. When HCl is dissolved in water, it dissociates to give H+ and Cl- ions. Here, the Cl- minus has lost an H+, hence Cl- is the acid radical.
Similarly, the radical left behind when a molecule loses an OH- group is called the basic radical. For example, when NaOH dissociates to give Na+ and OH- ions, Na+ has lost an OH-, hence is called the basic radical.
Similarly, the radical left behind when a molecule loses an OH- group is called the basic radical. For example, when NaOH dissociates to give Na+ and OH- ions, Na+ has lost an OH-, hence is called the basic radical.

for example like let's take HCL . when HEL is dissolved in water. it dissociates to give H+ and cl- ions. the cl- has lost an h+ hence cl- is the acid radical

for example when NAOH dissociates to give NA+ and OH- ions na+ has lost an oh+ hence is called the basic radical.
