A radical is a molecule or atom that has at least one unpaired electron (one electron is in an orbit by itself), but this moelcule or atom does not carry a charge like an ion because the number of orbiting electrons still matches the number of protons in the nucleus.; however it is very reactive.
An ion is an atom or molecule that is positively or negatively charged due to the loss or gain of an electron.
An ion is an atom or molecule that is positively or negatively charged due to the loss or gain of an electron.
